8th Grade End of Year Trip
June 3rd – 4th, 2014
We have the
pleasure of traveling to Ashland ,
Oregon Eugene , which takes approximately two hours,
we'll stop at the Dexter State Recreation Site for frisbee golf, a bbq lunch,
and swimming. After a few hours of fun, we'll reload the cars and head for Ashland . We're staying
the night in the dorms at Southern Oregon University. We'll check in and give
everyone time to shower and dress before heading over to Lithia Park
“Sun, sand and shtick
The service stinks but
the gags are four-star in this Marx Brothers romp. Groucho owns a bum hotel in Florida and peddles
dubious real estate to gullible Northerners seeking a place in the sun. He’s
after a rich society dame, who’s after an eligible match for her daughter,
who’s in love with the hotel’s head clerk. Trouble rolls in with the tide when
the other Marxes arrive and mama’s eligible match turns out to be anything but.
Mark Bedard (Groucho in 2012’s Animal Crackers) will adapt this jazz-age gem
with songs by Irving Berlin.”
Expected attire is
dressy. That means either skirts and blouses with nice shoes or slacks with a
button up shirt and tie. No jeans, sweats, shorts, t shirts, bare legs, etc.
Sunday morning we
will eat in the cafeteria at SOU before our guided tour of the campus. We will
then load the cars and head back to the park for a picnic lunch. Our second
performance will be the matinee performance of “The Tempest”
From the OSF website:
“Rough magic and brave
new worlds
For 12 years, the
exiled Duke Prospero has waited for this moment: Old enemies have sailed too
close to his enchanted island, and a mighty storm has forced them ashore. Now
it’s time to settle old scores and reclaim his former dukedom for his daughter,
Miranda. Aided by supernatural powers, Prospero dispenses justice while
overseeing the growing attraction between Miranda and the princely son of one
of his foes. In Shakespeare’s romance, sorcery and love transmute vengeance
into humility and humanity, making it possible for all to return to a world
made new by the power of forgiveness. This production of "The
Tempest" is part of Shakespeare for a New Generation, a national theatre
initiative sponsored by the National Endowment for the Arts in cooperation with
Arts Midwest.”
The attire will be slightly less
formal, but still dressy. Polo shirts, button up shirt sans tie, skirts, or
dresses would be fine. No jeans, shorts, sweats, t shirts, etc.
The show will get
over at 4:00 and we will immediately load cars and head for home. We should be
back at school by 8:00 p.m.
