Tim Robinson from the Highline Times recently dropped by the Hi-Liners for as they were rehearsing for their newest program, Les Miserable (school edition).  While there, Tim couldn't help but be impressed and snap a few pictures.  Thanks to Tim and Highline Times for letting us use them in our newsletter!

 

 
 
 
 
Arts plays an important role in a community.  Burien has so many great places for you to see the arts, visual, theatrical, and musical. 
 
In an email from Barbie Seifert, she related the following:
 
"Thanks for the support guys!   I can't tell you how much the Hi-Liners has impacted my son's life.  He is going to be able to go to a wonderful University on an excellent scholarship because of all his hard work and dedication to theatrical arts - of which the Hi-Liners had a huge influence.  We are so grateful that this fantastic arts program is available to the youth of our community!"
 
We're grateful too for such a great organization to be part of Burien.  Thanks Barbie!
