Jerry Fay Wilhelm directed Bastrop High School's U.I.L. One-Act-Play competition for 27 years, and under her direction, Bastrop High School won many awards at the district, area, regional and state levels. During that time, her passion and commitment to theater inspired countless students and young dramatists, many of whom went on to pursue stage careers on a professional level or follow in her footsteps and dedicate their lives to teaching. Bastrop County lost this treasured educator in 2007, but her memory will live on during the student productions performed in this beautiful facility.
