Alan Keith
Don't let the fish fool you! He's a wiz with his tools as much as he with a rod. He's been helping build sets for several years now, and has fun sneaking around behind the scenes then getting to watch the whole project come together.

There are others who have helped out and we want to thank them as well- Michael Schuhler, Clinton Howser, Jayden Osborn, Brooklyn Fools, Charlize Keeney, and all of our significant others who support our passions!
