Join us for Apple Crisp, Ice Cream and Sorny B’s Food Truck for lunch. Along with live music by local musician, Adam Hammer. All Proceeds will go to fixing our lakeside patio. Last year, in May 2022, a severe storm swept through our community, bring with it heavy rain and tornados. During the storm, our handicap accessible walkway down to the Lakeside Patio was destroyed beyond repaid by storm water. Since then, we have been working with the Douglas County Soil and Water Conservation District (SWCD) and their engineers to create a plan to “naturalize” 500 ft. of lakeshore with native flowers and grasses. The plan includes re-using the patio pavers to create a new patio, improved water runoff management, and accessible nature trail with seating areas. This will make the lakeshore more accessible to our residents. The native flowers and grasses will create a natural filter for stormwater and runoff and enhance the area for pollinators.

Disney’s NEWSIES JR.
Disney’s Newsies JR. is a 60-minute version of the 2012 Broadway musical, based on the 1992 film. Inspired by the rousing true story of newsboys in turn-of-the-century New York City, Newsies JR. features a Tony Award-winning score by Alan Menken and Jack Feldman and a book by Tony Award winner Harvey Fierstein.
When powerful newspaper publishers raise prices at the newsboys’ expense, the charismatic Jack Kelly rallies newsies from across the city to strike against the unfair conditions. Together, the newsies learn that they are stronger united and create a movement to fight for what’s right.
