President
Britt Fairchild
Britt served as Vice President during the ‘22-‘23 school year. She joined the Drama Boosters in 2021. Britt fell in love with theatre in eighth grade when she portrayed King Hamlet’s ghost in a school play.
She continued acting in high school and college, grateful to be in the company of such kind, talented, and creative peers. Now, as a mom, it’s meaningful to see both her sons experiencing the same feeling as part of the THS Drama community.
Britt works as a technical writer and holds a bachelor’s degree in journalism from Cal Poly, San Luis Obispo. She and her family enjoy road trips, camping in the redwoods, seeing concerts, and attending as many live plays and musicals as possible.

She holds a Bachelor of Science in Liberal Studies from Cal Poly, San Luis Obispo, and holds a Multiple Subject Teaching Credential, and a Library Science degree. She and her husband and three children live in Templeton, they enjoy board games, hiking, reading, live theatre, attending concerts, art, watching movies, and spending time together as a family.

Secretary
Leslie Wallace
Leslie is the mother of three boys who love drama, and two girls. She joined a team of officers to give back just a little bit to this amazing program which has created a supportive and loving environment for her kids, given them an outlet for their creativity, humor, and talents, and provided hours of entertainment, both tears of joy and humor.
All the drama kids are a joy to be around, and her family is so grateful for this program. When she's not doing something to support her kids, she's dating her high school sweetheart, cooking up delicious food, or reading a good book.
Founder
Vicki van den Eikhof
Vicki passionately believes that every person on this earth is born to be creative. It is imperative for our survival as a species, as well as our personal happiness, that we discover our creative outlets and learn to use them to make the world a better place. Arts education is a vital way of doing this. Every child deserves an arts education--performing arts, visual arts, dance/movement, music, creative writing, and everything in between. In 2014, Vicki created the THS Drama Boosters to support the drama program. In 2018 she helped create the Templeton Performing Arts Center Foundation to develop community support and raise money for the TPAC. These non-profits work together with our beautiful theatre, passionate teachers, and students, to build up and reinforce a community of invested supporters and audience members.
