Edmonton Christmas parade planning underway

By Kim Harwood, Executive Director, Edmonton Metcalfe Chamber of Commerce

To say that it takes planning to pull off a parade would be an understatement. Thankfully, Chris Huffman has worked the local parade for years. We are excited to host another night parade and we hope to have a large number of parade entries again this year.

Last year was so much fun despite the rain, and hopes are high that this year will be as good or better!

As of today, there are 13 entries and plenty of time for Churches, Clubs, the School, businesses, and individuals to put a float together or decorate a vehicle, ATV, or your horses for the event December 9, 2023 at 5pmCT.

LWC Theatre to present Peter/Wendy on Thursday and Friday

The Lindsey Wilson College Theatre Program will present a whimsical and imaginative adaptation of the classic children's tale Peter/Wendy at 7pmCT on Thursday, November 16, 2023 and Friday, November 17, 2023.

In this lyrical, atmospheric interpretation of Peter Pan, Jeremy Bloom strips the familiar story down to its emotional essence. Peter lures Wendy away from her nursery to the magical world of Neverland, where she joins his adventures with Tinker Bell, Tiger Lily, and the menacing Captain Hook. A low-tech, inventive adaptation that pays homage to the darker themes of J. M. Barrie's original, Peter/Wendy will mesmerize audiences of all ages.

This creative production is directed by LWC Assistant Professor of Theatre Jeremy Cloyd, and will be performed in V.P. Henry Auditorium, located inside the L.R. McDonald Administration Building, 210 Lindsey Wilson Street, Columbia, KY. To purchase tickets in advance, visit www.lindsey.edu/theatre. Tickets will also be available at the door.

Seating at Little League Games

By Daniel Hedges

I have asked coaches to communicate this message to parents, but I wanted to make a public announcement as well. During games, all spectators including children, need to stay in the bleachers. Please do not allow kids to run the gym or play on the rock wall. I had children crossing the court during the game, and some grab balls over there.

This is a safety issue. Please keep all children not participating in the games in bleachers during the game. Thank You.
