FKC Play Production Competition: Tuesday, Nov. 23 at the Tassel in Holdrege. There will be no charge for admission. Wilcox-Hildreth is scheduled to perform at 12:10 p.m. If you are free that day, please consider coming to watch out kids perform. It's always such a great morale boost for the kids when we have those in the audience that will laugh and respond to their acting!
Please be aware that if plays are shorter than expected, we may perform earlier than that. Plan to be at least a half hour early to avoid missing the performance. Once the doors are closed, no one is allowed to enter the auditorium.
Awards will not take place until after 7:00 p.m.! It's going to be a very long day with 12 plays scheduled. Students will not be home until after 8:00 p.m.
It's the kids' favorite day! Pancake Day at the Hildreth site. Thank you to the Hildreth Lions Club for serving up some delicious pancakes!
