Theatre Night

We had a wonderful turnout for our sponsorship of the Ravenscroft performance at the Theatre of Western Springs. No blizzards, torrential rain or polar vortexes disrupt the outing.

A dessert buffet of goodies during the intermission was catered by EEK Catering. Thank you for joining us. We look forward to the 10^th Theatre Event in 2020. Remember, invitations will only go out via email. So if you know of someone that would like to get special offers, news or invitations, have them sign up for our newsletter at:

For those of us who partake, we have entered into the Lenten Season. As we ponder on what to give up such as sweets, french fries or a favorite beverage, maybe we can do something nice for someone every day. It can be as simple as holding a door open or offering to take a grocery cart back or even let someone go before you at a stop sign. It may just brighten someone’s day and make a difference.

Share your Random Act of Kindness with us. We will post in our next newsletter

Thank you for your continued trust.
