Okay, he’s been busy.

Ski SchoolCome one, come all and learn how to ski. If you already know how,

you can always learn to ski better. And just in case you were wondering,it’s really not like they show ski school in the movies. Nobody will be

skiing naked and going to wild parties, although it would be fun; and I’msure I would like to try it. But that is not the objective. We will actually

learn how to ski.

Where will this be happening you ask? We will be at Alpine Valley onWednesday nights.

And how much will this cost? The cost will be determined by howmany people we get; the more people we get the less it will be.

Ski rental is $18.00. Snow board rental is $28.00

Anybody who is interested in joining us or who needs moreinformation, please give me a call or an e-mail; and I will do my best totake care of you. ☺Keith Kazmierczak(313) 538-4237 HMe-mail: [email protected] HMe-mail: [email protected] WK

The Play…The Culture…The Foooooood!Please consider joining us for an evening of fun and culture. Saturday, March 22, we are planning to attend a

presentation of Apartment 3A by Phoenix Productions in Ypsilanti. This very gifted group consists of many scholarship awardwinners to the prestigious Purple Rose Theater, which is owned and run by Michigan's own Jeff Daniels.

Jeff Daniels has starred in several major motion pictures and has written several plays including Escanaba In DaMoonlight, a hilarious comedy which enjoyed a very successful two-year run at the Gem Theater in Detroit. On this outing,we will be able to see a production of his latest work in Apartment 3A. Phoenix Productions has been very good at coming upwith a special treat for our group. Last time we had such an outing, they did a special aftershow performance of improv. Onthis occasion, my understanding is they are planning a special (non-alcoholic) afterglow.

As always, they will be offering us a special price on admission. Tickets, normally $12.00, will be available to our groupfor $10.00. In addition, with a dinner receipt from Haab's restaurant, we will receive an additional $4.00 off admission.

So the evening agenda will be as follows:• 6:00 Dinner at Haab's. Those attending get an additional $4 off their theater ticket.• 8:00 The play. Discounted tickets for our group are $10 (i.e. $6.00 with dinner receipt).• AFTER THE PLAY: Special afterglow (non-alcoholic) reception.• TREK TO Sidetrack Lounge for adult beverage afterglow.

For more information (or help in organizing car pools) contact:Darrell AhlbergC-586-899-8203W-586-274-7611
