On Golden Pond is directed by Ron Smith, and is presented by special arrangement with Dramatists Play Service, Inc., New York. It will be staged at Glen Lake Community Reformed Church on Oct. 20-21. Reservations suggested. Free to attend, Donations Accepted. Email: gaaareaderstheater@gmail.com

AUDITIONS:
Monday, October 23, 7 p.m. at the Glen Lake Community Reformed Church 4902 W. MacFarlane Road in Burdickville.
This Readers’ Theater production offers roles for 4-6 men, 4-6 women, and other miscellaneous characters. Some roles may be cast regardless of gender. “Remember The Night” is a love story that starts in a court of law. It’s a heartwarming Christmas-time show that skillfully blends touching drama with comedy. Moved to pity by the Christmas season, New York District Attorney John Sargent lets pretty shoplifter Lee Leander out on bail and offers her a ride home to Indiana. They end up meeting each others’ parents, and then Cupid becomes judge and jury. The 1940’s film version was written by playwright Preston Sturges, who elevated the romantic, screwball comedy genre to new levels of intelligence and maturity; and starred Fred MacMurray and Barbara Stanwyck.
Readers’ Theater veteran Teddy House directs “Remember The Night.” Scripts are available to review at the GAAA offices during business hours. Digital scripts are now available.
STAGED:
At Glen Lake Community Reformed Church on December 8 – 9, 2017

On that date, two events will offer you opportunities to focus on the sky. The first event is from 4:00 p.m. to 6:00 p.m. and will allow visitors to safely view our closest star, the sun, using a solar telescope. The second event will be from 9:00 p.m. to 11:00 p.m. Feel free to hike up the dunes at the Dune Climb during the event, watch a sunset at 9:29 p.m., and rejoin the rangers and astronomers in the parking lot at the base of the dunes.
Take advantage of the very young moon to relax under the stars, view distant celestial objects, observe Venus, Jupiter, and Saturn. Mars will make its appearance around 11:00 p.m.

Each event will feature drop-in stations for you to visit at your leisure. Be sure to stop by the ranger greeter table in the parking lot at the Dune Climb for more information about the stations and their locations. Visit with Friends of Sleeping Bear! We will have a table next to the NPS table.

At the Dune Climb, please park in the row furthest from the dunes with your headlights facing M-109. Overflow parking, within easy walking distance to the Dune Climb, is in the Great Lakes Picnic Area. The picnic area entrance is located just south of the entrance to the Dune Climb. Follow the Sleeping Bear Heritage Trail from the parking area to the Dune Climb. Volunteers will be assisting with parking at both locations.

All sky programs offered by the National Lakeshore are free. Participants need only purchase the park entrance pass or have an annual pass displayed in their vehicle to join in the fun. Programs will be cancelled if the sky is not visible due to weather conditions. The decision to cancel is usually made two hours in advance. Please call 231-326-4700, ext. 5005, for a voicemail message with the decision.

For all evening astronomy events, bring a flashlight for the walk back to your car and bug spray, if needed. You are welcome to bring your own binoculars, beach chairs, and blankets for a more comfortable experience, and water is always recommended for National Park Service (NPS) programs. Park rangers and GTAS staff will wear red glow necklaces or bracelets at the events. For more information about the GTAS, go to http://www.gtastro.org

This event is the perfect opportunity to “Find Your Park” in the stars. Starry night skies and natural darkness are important components of the special places the NPS protects.
