BOARD SPOTLIGHT - Julie Cash-Teague - Treasurer

Julie is in her third year serving on the Theatre Guild Board in a Treasurer role.  She is the proud stepmom to Sam Teague, a Theatre Junior. While working as the Senior Brand Development Manager for Gatorade, Julie also tirelessly volunteers for many school events and has a soft spot in her heart for Feed the Kids, I am Booker T Day and Registration events - all wonderful ways to meet and get to know the incredibly talented students, families and dedicated staff at BTW. 

Outside of her work with the school, Julie also volunteers alongside her coworkers at PepsiCo with organizations such as The North Texas Food Bank, Habitat for Humanity and PepsiCo’s College Recruit/Mentorship Program.  When not working or volunteering at the school and in the community, Julie can be found on the golf course and spoiling the last member of the Teague family - Hardy Dog.

THEATRE GUILD NEEDS YOU!

The Guild is actively recruiting for an Assistant Treasurer for the 2022-2023 school year.  This person would work directly with Julie to learn the role and scope of responsibility of the Guild Treasurer and in anticipation of assuming the Treasurer position for  the 2023-2024 school year.  If you are interested in learning more about Assistant Treasurer, please contact our Guild President Rhonda Thompson at text: (214) 507-5121 or email: btwtheatrepresident21@gmail.com
