Subject:Please support the SLO Rep / parking structure project
Ladies and Gentlemen:
Please support the parking structure and SLO Rep project at tonight's meeting. As a long time volunteer
at SLO Rep, I can attest to the value it adds to the community.
Over the past 20 years our entire family (our two daughters, our son-in-law, my sister, my wife and I) has
participated in productions at the theatre. Our girls grew up in the theatre's ACT program for children.
Our daughter and son-in-law met in a SLO Rep production. Our other daughter has gone on to pursue a
professional performance career and has taught classes for kids in ACT. We have been actors, stage
hands, sound and light technicians, lobby volunteers and costume and set builders.
That participation has resulted in literally hundreds of meals in SLO restaurants and hours spent
supporting the local businesses in town before and after performances and rehearsals. SLO Rep's
contributions to both the arts and business communities are clear to me.
I appreciate the longstanding support the City has shown the theatre. I encourage you to continue your
support of this important community asset.
Thank you.
Gregory Peters
