Greetings,
Are the kids already bored, do
you need a vacation but can't afford the gas?
Follow the Yellowbrick Road to the Limelight Theatre, attend a
performance of "Oz" and get away for a few
hours of high powered fun! The talented cast
is comprised of youth from all parts of
St. Johns County.
Michael Rothfeld
is looking for Korean War Veterans to interview
for a documentary, entitled, " America's Forgotten Heroes."
The SJC Veterans Council and the Florida Veteran
Programs & Projects Inc., in association with
the Art Institute of Jacksonville,
are joining forces to produce the
documentary. Dr. Nadia
Ramatour and her team of students and
professionals from the Art Institute are
scheduled to begin filming this fall.
Mr. Rothfeld may be reached at 829-0381.
Thanks to Gregory Van
Hausch and Sara
Geraci, our "Dinner and a Movie" night
continues to provide audience pleasing movies. We
also appreciate the support and delicious food
offered each month by Pat
Morrisey and Ned
Pollack from the Gypsy
Cab Company. Our next "Dinner
and a Movie" will be on July 28.
Reservations can be made by calling 824-8244.
Enjoy...
