Above and Beyond

Julie Byrnes- A Thank You!

Julie has been very active with our Playhouse for a couple years and during a major time of transition she chose to take on a major role for us.

Over the past 6 months she has served our GiGi’s Playhouse families, participants, and community as Interim Executive Director. Under her leadership, we made certain to keep GiGi’s Playhouse Madison’s programs running while hiring and training new staff AND navigating a pandemic!

Bill Henry, Board of Directors President, said “Without Julie’s continued leadership we would not have been able to come together as a Playhouse community and continue the incredible programming we offer to our community. We all have benefitted from her dedication.”

We are happy to share that Julie will be returning to a volunteer position on the Board of Directors as Vice President and Chair of the Program Committee as well as helping with fundraising projects such as the gala.

Please help us in not only thanking Julie for all she has done in our time of transition but for all she will be continuing to do going forward! She truly shows us what Generation G is all about!
