It's Carnival Crunch-Time
  

The Carnival is tomorrow and WE NEED YOU!

A huge THANK YOU to those who have signed up to volunteer at this year's Carnival (and who have purchased tickets). For those who haven't, we still have crucial volunteer slots to fill in areas like games, prize redemption, dinner clean up, and tear down.

You're going to be there already anyway, isn't it easier to have a job to do rather than stand around wondering if you'll ever find your kids again? We only need one hour of your time! Trade off with a spouse or friend, invite an older sibling or grandparent-- anyone can help!
 
There's also still time to purchase your tickets online and save 10% (you pay $9 online vs $10 at the door). Family passes are available for families with 5+ members - save at least $15. 


See you on Saturday afternoon!

Edina High School Thespians Present...
 

The Edina High School thespians will be presenting their spring musical, "Freckleface Strawberry," on April 28, 29 & 30 at 7:00pm, at the Edina Performing Arts center. Tickets will be available online, with prices of $6 for students/children/seniors, and $10 for adults.

 

"Freckleface Strawberry will do anything to get rid of her freckles - from scrubbing them with soap, to caking on makeup, and even wearing a ski mask to school! Will her schoolmates realize it's her under the mask? Will Freckleface be brave enough to finally face her complexion in the mirror? With the help of her lovable schoolmates including an amazingly talented ballerina, a cutie jock, a charming ditz, and a totally kooky teacher, Freckleface learns that everyone is different - and that's what makes everyone special! With fun music, awesome dancing... and a freckle-face full of laughs, your whole family will love this brand new musical for all ages . . . freckles or not!" (Description taken from the musical's N.Y. City production website)
