Volunteer Spotlight -

Robert Lackey

Robert Lackey is one of our most enduring and consistent volunteers.

He started in August of 2004 doing a studio shoot and has been doing studio and single camera shoots ever since.

Robert also volunteers on many of the local school and neighborhood music events. 

He produced the Hallelujah Hour, which aired in 2007.

Robert claims the Winton Woods Board Meetings as his,  doing almost every one of them since 2005.

Being a man of many years has not hindered him in his dedication.

When you see him at his next production,  bringing along his own stool, be sure to congratulate and thank him from all of us.
