An enormous THANK YOU to all who made yesterday's

An enormous THANK YOU to all who made yesterday's Community Cook-out a huge success! It would not have been possible without our volunteers, performers, @centerstagesweets, @pricechopper, and you, our guests and community members. We were able to raise over $550 thanks to your generosity and, more importantly, open our courtyard (albeit, for just a few hours) to show the community that we are still here, we miss you, and we are making moves to ensure that when our doors do open again, SLOC is somewhere everyone can call home.

The Board of Directors of the Schenectady Light Op

The Board of Directors of the Schenectady Light Opera Company is thrilled to announce its appointments to the last two open Board seats. These positions are chosen by the President and voted on by the remainder of the Board and were filled after an open call for candidates to apply last month.

Sonya Sidhu-Izzo will be filling the empty three-year seat. Sonya has been a supporter of SLOC since her first show in 1994. She has experience serving on other Boards, notably as the Board Chair of the New York State Academy of Family Physicians. She brings experience dealing with stewardship of resources, advancing mission statements, and promoting organizations. She looks forward to using these skills to help SLOC navigate these challenging times, as she has much love for the company.

Haley Van Etten will fill the two-year seat that was left empty after a resignation in June. A native of Burnt Hills, she returned to the area after completing her education and made her SLOC debut as a production assistant for Mary Poppins in 2019. She was part of two other SLOC projects that had to be cancelled due to the pandemic and is thrilled to be able to serve the company in a different capacity. She brings experience working with the OMS Drama Club in Burnt Hills, as well as skills gained from her career as a mental health counselor. She looks forward to helping SLOC become a theater that is immersed in the community, as well as one that is reflective of it.

Our now-complete Board is actively working to continue bringing entertainment and education to our theater family during this time. As always, if you are interested in becoming involved as a volunteer or member, or have questions or concerns, please reach out anytime to president@sloctheater.org.
