Bill and Marie Cull - The Challenge
The Challenge is to match a donor’s $100,000 gift. All proceeds raised are for additional funding to our existing endowment to allow the Grand to hire valuable and necessary staff as we continue to grow. Our founder and President, Bill Cull, who you may know from announcing the shows, greeting patrons and working concessions, has given all his time free of charge. Bill plans to materially reduce his role by 2026, and we need staff to assume his duties which include, among other things, researching and booking acts, securing funding through grants and donations, meeting with local and state leaders regarding our economic impact, coordinating with local schools and non-profits to provide access to our offerings, and overseeing the day-to-day operations.
