"Manley's auction is finally coming on June 5, and they've got "LOTS" of stuff!   The following is only a partial listing,  a lot more furniture and collectibles have been donated since the bill was printed.  A sale like this is sure to have something for everyone including good food."

Children’s Theater Auditions at Lofte in Manley

Auditions for the Missoula Children’s Theatre production of “King Arthur’s Quest”  will be held on Monday, June 14, 2010 from 10am to 12pm at the Lofte Community Theatre near Manley.  There are roles for students entering 1st grade through 7th grade.  There is no cost to participate in this production.  Those wishing to audition must arrive by 10am and be prepared to stay for the whole two-hour session.  The first rehearsal begins 15-30 minutes after auditions.  There is no guarantee that everyone who auditions will be cast in the play.  This is a group audition.  No advance preparation is necessary, but a smile always helps! 
The first rehearsal will begin at approximately 12:30pm on Monday, right after auditions.  Subsequent rehearsals will take place at the Lofte each day that week (through June 19) from 10am to 2:30pm.  Although not all actors will be needed at each session, they should make sure they have a clear schedule for the entire week.  It is important that each child attends ALL rehearsals required for their role.   A detailed schedule for each child/role will be distributed after auditions.
The Missoula Children's Theatre is a non-profit organization based in Missoula, Montana. This year they will work with more than 65,000 children across the globe.  Missoula’s residency week at the Lofte Community Theatre is made possible by Home State Bank of Louisville.
The Lofte will hold two public performances on Saturday, June 19th, 2010.  The first is at 3pm, the second at 6pm.  Tickets are $8 for adults and $5 for children under 12.  More information about “King Arthur’s Quest” can be found on the Lofte’s website, www.Lofte.com.

SUMMER SCHOOL ENRICHMENT PROGRAM

We have enough students registered to offer sessions 1, 2, and 3.  However, we do not have enough interest in sessions 4 and 5 to offer them.  There has been some discussion about combining sessions 4 and 5 but since we did not have enough interest by the registration deadline and beyond our teachers have other commitments. We will not be having sessions 4 and 5.

SUMMER KNIGHTS

We are planning to offer Summer Knights Childcare for our students this summer.  We have commitments from 11 students and believe that we can make this work financially for the school district.  Summer Knights Childcare Handbooks will be sent home to the families that have registered for the childcare program.  Please contact the school if you are interested in registering your child or would like more information regarding the program.  The program will run from June 1, 2010 through August 13, 2010.
