The Youth of Alpharetta Presbyterian Church are hoping to see you tomorrow night, SATURDAY, MARCH 12 from 7:30PM TO 9:30PM for our SILENT & LIVE AUCTIONS in FELLOWSHIP HALL.  Fun, music and fellowship with our youth will help raise money for our mission trips.  Desserts and light hors d'oeuvres will be available!  Vacation home stays, handmade items, landscaping services, music lessons, boat rides and much, much more will be auctioned off. Many new items have been added since Sunday! Childcare will be provided with required check-in between 7:30 and 8:00pm. 

Trip to the Global Village: Children, parents, interested APC members and friends, be immersed in the life of a developing country without traveling too far. Join us Saturday, April 16 as we journey to the Calvin Center's Global Village in Hampton, GA. We will leave at 9:30am and return at 8:00pm unless you would like to stay overnight under the stars in the village. We will make adobe bricks, cook our own food, work in the field, make a slum house and simply learn a lot about life.  Contact volunteer@alpharettapres.com if you want to go or learn more. The cost is $15 per person. All ages welcome.

Many of us caring for senior loved ones hear the term "Aging in Place," but do we truly understand what this means? Find out at the March meeting of the APC Eldercare Support group, where our speaker will be geriatric social worker Dara McMillan, MCSW. Dara will help us understand "Aging in Place" and also welcome other questions you may have.  We will meet Thursday evening, March 17, at 6:30pm in the APC Fellowship Hall. For questions or other information, please contact Ellen Adolph at hbunnies@gmail.com  or 678-637-2928.

On March 20 at 10:00AM APC will hold it's first Blessing of the Bikes. We welcome all motorcyclists and bicyclists to join in this blessing. The Motocycle Safety Crews of the Komen 3 Day for the Cure and the Atlanta 2 Day Walk for Breast Cancer have also been invited. Both Moto Crews combine motorcycles and bicycles to ensure the safety of walkers in both events. Komen 3 Day for the Cure has invested more than $1.9 Billiion, the largest source of nonprofit funds dedicated to the fight against breast cancer in the world. In just its first seven years, Atlanta's 2-Day Walk for Georgia's Breast Cancer Community has raised over $7.5 million and has awarded over 146 grants to Georgia breast cancer organizations.

ACT1 Theater Presents: Barbecuing Hamlet by Pat Cook. Wouldn't it be great fun to direct William Shakespeare's "Hamlet"? That was what Margo Daley always thought...until she is hired to do just that by a renovated funeral home. They DO have a couple of conditions, however. Margo has to make the play a melodrama, so the audience will know when to throw the popcorn. And they can't be too loud because the lady who lives under the theater bangs her cane on the stage. Oh, and by the way, it has to take place in the Old West. Eccentric characters come out of the woodwork in this riotous farce as Margo and her troupe of misguided actors find out what it's like when they begin "Barbecuing Hamlet."

Now through March 27 (Fridays and Saturdays at 7:30pm with Sunday Matinees on March 13, 20 & 27 at 2:00pm).  Special Pricing For APC Members!

Adults: $10; Children under 12 and Seniors over 60: $8

Tickets available in the lobby, by phone at 770-751-0033 ext 225 or online at www.act1theater.com
