SPIRE SPOTLIGHT

BY WOODROW BAVOTA

Pat Goin is the Spire Center’s box office and hospitality
director. Greeting all with a smile, her fabulous jewelry
and sense of style is a centerpiece as people enter the
Spire. Long before the audience is in their seats, Pat
meets and greets with the entertainers organizing all of
their Green Room needs. Whether it's specialty foods,
beer, wine etc. she takes care of it all.
You’ll always hear Pat singing joyously and see her
delight in being an integral part of an entertainment
venue that’s making such a positive impact both
culturally and monetarily to the town of Plymouth. Her
journey here at the Spire began in 2014 with
volunteering, ushering and committee-ing. Pat’s
commitment is something that we’ve all come to rely on
with extreme gratitude.
When not at the Spire Pat leads a busy and eclectic life.
Writing, working in theater, studying art, a love of
history and literature, launching jewelry designs and
creating recipes. Pat is an amazing cook who is known
for her uniquely delicious cuisine. She just needs to bring
more of these edible delights into work.
Pat’s biggest love is her family time! She lives each
moment to the fullest and appreciates the wonder of it
all.
I’m finding it appropriate to finish with a direct quote
from Pat that sums up her thoughts of working at the Top photo of Pat entering the Spire for Jazzfest; photo by
Spire! "It is a supreme pleasure to be among such Denise Maccaferri. Starting from bottom left photo, Pilgrim
one- singing 17 century music at the Antiquarian Society’s
wonderful people, making lifelong friends, meeting annual Pilgrim breakfast. Middle photo; Pat with Tom Rush &
fabulous musicians and hearing every kind of incredible Matt Nikoa. Bottom right photo of Gail, Pat, & Julie, after a sold
music. I'm most grateful to be here." out feel good show at the Spire Center.
