CHARITABLE OUTING
Thursday, October 19, a group of Boomers and Beyond met at Feed My Starving Children to volunteer their time to hand-pack nutritious meals for children in Jamaica.  FMSC is an amazing organization.  It starts from the time you walk in the door and are greeted with friendly faces and in the workroom with everyone working together to improve the lives of malnourished children around the world.

REGISTRATION DEADLINE: Tuesday, November 7

REGISTRATION AND PAYMENT REQUIRED:
“Legally Blonde” is a Broadway musical and was a movie starring Reese Witherspoon. It is about Elle Woods, a fashionable sorority queen who is dumped by her boyfriend. She decides to follow him to Harvard Law School to win him back. While there she discovers how her knowledge of the law can help others. Throughout the show no one has faith in Elle Woods, but she manages to surprise them when she defies expectations while staying true to herself. Come and join the Boomers for an afternoon of music, dancing and singing.

We will start with a light lunch at Pax Christi at 11:30pm and then carpool to Eden Prairie High School (carpooling is necessary since parking is at a premium during school hours) where the Drama Students will perform the play “Legally Blonde” at 1:30pm.  The fee is $6.00 for lunch payable at registration, play at Eden Prairie High School is free.
