Sometimes TLC of your auditorium requires a refinish on the stage floor. Here we see some industrious Technical Theater students working with sanders to prepare the surface for painting. In the background we can also see a group working on wiring for our new lights we just got in, and another group building sets. This group works as hard as they play and we love them for it!
