Review for Friends Of The Strand Inc, Marietta, GA, USA

Rating: 5 stars  

Impeccably decorated. A rooftop patio view of the Marietta Square. Cleverly-marketed theme parties like "Brew With A View" on said patio. And a staff so attentive during special events and private parties that you'd think the red carpet ran from the front door to infinity and beyond. THE EARL SMITH STRAND THEATRE and Friends of the Strand Inc rules.

I've personally experienced the results of this organization in...

the tremendous work it has one on behalf of my hometown and its continued improvement in quality of life in and around Marietta, Ga.

If I had to make changes to this organization, I would...

leave it be.

What I've enjoyed the most about my experience with this nonprofit is...

its attention to detail and flawless execution during private parties and special events.

The kinds of staff and volunteers that I met were...

highly professional and just really, REALLY great people - they truly care about their community and work selflessly to promote Marietta as a whole - not just The Earl Smith Strand Theatre.

If this organization had 10 million bucks, it could...

Buy the building and several other Marietta Square frontage properties from Goldstein and tell him to go stick it where the sun don't shine.

Ways to make it better...

I were on a yacht in the Caribbean lying on a chaise and surrounded by beautiful women in flowing white robes while feeding me grapes. Like that's ever going to happen... S

In my opinion, the biggest challenges facing this organization are...

lack of funding.

One thing I'd also say is that...

if it weren't for this organization the Marietta Square wouldn't be half the tourist and local entertainment and dining destination it is today.

How frequently have you been involved with the organization?

About every month

When was your last experience with this nonprofit?
