Parks & Rec. Hi everyone! Family Day in the Park is set for June 20th. Lots of fun and games are scheduled including swim-ming, BBQ, bouncy houses, and more. There should also be some new playground equipment installed by then for everyone to try out. For any students looking for employment this summer, the Summer Fun Program is currently looking for stu-dent leaders and coordinators for the program. Drop off your resume at the town office if you’re interested. The swimming pool is looking for some enthusiastic life-guards for the upcoming season. If you’ve got the quali-fications and want to have a great employment experi-ence, apply now! Keep an eye out for the pool mail-out that will be going out and swimming lesson dates have been set: July 4-8, July 18-29, and August 8-12. Yoga is continuing Monday evenings until the end of the school year. It’s a great opportunity to stay active and there is no experience necessary to join. The next Parks ‘n Rec meeting is May 18th.

Thank you for all your support for our dinner theatre, it is very
encouraging to our club. This year we were forced to postpone
our performance due to some unforeseen circumstances. But as
they say, “...the play must go on!”
“The Revenge of the Red Feather Ladies”
“The Red Feather Ladies Get Their Man”
(Two one-act plays which are funny
and engaging to watch)
Will you join us November 18th—20th
for our dinner theatre?
Also, if you like drama and would like to be involved with our
club behind the scenes, please send us an email to
[email protected] so we can add you to our com-
munication list.
Don’t want to act? That’s OK….we have lots of ways you can be
part of our club and its dinner theatre productions each year.
As they say….many hands make light work.
Again thank you,
Allan Creative Players
