<big><b></b></big>Friday, October 19 · 7:00pm - 11:00pm, 530 Main St., Acton, MA</div>
<span><br />
In celebration of this most eeeeerie time of year . . . Voyagers
is proud to present our usually annual Halloween dance! Come in
costume or come as yourself ... bring your pet ghosts and your
living friends. <br />
<br />
</span>Two forms, the Voyagers Waiver and the Code of Conduct, are
required in order to attend teen dances at Voyagers. We renew these
forms every September. <b>If you have not yet submitted forms for
the 2012-2013 year, you need to do so if you come to this dance. </b><span>Links to both forms are at the bottom of
this message. <br />
<br />
</span>Ticket prices will be $5 for Voyagers members, $8 for
non-Voyagers members, and pizza is $1.50 a slice. Snacks and soda
are included in the ticket price.<br />
<br />
<a name='more'></a>If you have a song request<span>, please e-mail the title and artist
to secondhalfoftherainbow@gma</span><span class="yiv1353104000word_break"></span>il.com
by 10/18. At least one request from anyone who sends one will be put
in the playlist, any extras will either be used or deferred to
future playlists. We will (almost) certainly be taking requests at
the dance; just talk to Ket Waters and she'll get your song in the
playlist.<br />
<br />
<span>We are also taking general
recommendations of music people would like to hear at the
dances. Please e-mail any ideas or suggestions to
secondhalfoftherainbow@gma</span><span class="yiv1353104000word_break"></span>il.com.
While we make no guarantees that we can play the recommendations
right away, we like having the chance to expand our music library.<br />
<br />
These events are targeted for participants ages 13-19. Please note
that because this event is geared toward high-school-age youth
some of the activities may not be suitable for younger kids.Jhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/03083613742675122059noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8202212443218784289.post-10897904309055398792012-09-25T09:44:00.000-04:002012-09-25T09:44:59.289-04:00Homeschool Fall Semi-Formal 11/2 - Raynham, MA<span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;">When: Friday Nov. 2nd</span><br />

"After some ups and downs we have finally found a place to hold the first
Homeschool Teen Dance.</div>
<div style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;">
<br /></div>
<div style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;">
<span style="color: blue;">It will be held on Oct. 6 which is a
Saturday. </span></div>
<div style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;">
<br /></div>
<div style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;">
<span style="color: blue;">Time - from 6:30 to 9:30. <span style="color: black;">I will have chaperons so parents can drop off and
pick up. </span></span></div>
<div style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;">
<br /></div>
<div style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;">
<span style="color: blue;">Place - Epsom American Legion <span style="color: black;">(<i><a href="http://www.merchantcircle.com/business/American.Legion.603-736-9707" target="_blank"><span style="color: blue;">address</span></a></i>) This is a non-drinking hall.</span></span></div>
<div style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;">
<br /></div>
<div style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;">
<span style="color: blue;">Fee - $5.00 per teen.<span style="color: black;"> I hope in the future this fee will come down with the more
teens that come. The fee is ONLY to cover rental fees and expenses.
I DO NOT plan on making any profit.</span></span></div>
<div style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;">
<br /></div>
<div style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;">
<span style="color: blue;">Theme - The 80's! <span style="color: black;">The girls thought it would be fun to start out with a themed
dance. The music will be all 80's
classics (Ouch - it hurt to say that!) and please let your teens know to dress
for the 80's. Big hair, leg warmers, neon clothing, mismatched earrings,
we want to see it all!</span></span></div>
<div style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;">
<br /></div>
<div style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;">
<span style="color: blue;">This is for ages 13 and up only.</span></div>

</div>
<a name='more'></a><div style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;">
<span style="color: blue;"><span style="color: black;">This is our first
time running this type of activity so please bear with us as we try our best to
make this dance fun </span></span><span style="color: blue;"><span style="color: black;">for all. </span></span></div>
<div style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;">

<span style="color: blue;"><span style="color: black;">If you have any
questions please feel free to email me.</span></span></div>
<div style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;">
<br /></div>
<div style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;">
<span style="color: blue;"><span style="color: black;">Also, feel free to
pass this info along to other homeschooler teens you may know that would
like to come out and dance. If we can get a good turn out and everything
goes well, we would love to keep them going.</span></span></div>
<div style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;">
<br /></div>
<div style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;">
<span style="color: blue;"><span style="color: black;">I do plan on having
a few rules. The same that you would find most places. But I will
send those at a later date.</span></span></div>
<div style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;">
<br /></div>
<div style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;">
<span style="color: blue;"><span style="color: black;">If you could let me
know if your teens will be attending, that would be a HUGE help.

<br />
The Brattleboro contra dance is a twice monthly dance party featuring
fantastic live music, excellent calling, and a lively group of friendly
dancers.
We feature talented performers from Brattleboro and the surrounding
areas, where we are fortunate to live amongst some of the best dance
musicians and callers in the country. We welcome new and experienced
dancers and dancers of all ages. No experience is necessary, all dances
are taught and called, and you don’t need to come with a partner. We
hope to see you there!<br />
<br />
The dance takes place in the Stone Church at the corner of Main and
Grove Streets, just north of the post office in downtown Brattleboro,
VT. The Stone Church features a lovely wooden dance floor and excellent
acoustics in a convenient location.<br />
<br />
The dance starts at 7:15 with a workshop for beginners, and continues
with dancing for all from 7:30 to 10:30 PM. Admission is $10 ($7
students/seniors/low income). Beginners are welcome; all the dances will
be taught. You don’t need to come with a partner; other friendly
dancers will dance with you.<br />
<br />
We welcome musicians to hang out and play tunes together at a slow,
informal jam session before every dance. All instruments and skill
levels are welcome starting at 5:30 PM and going until around 6:30.<a href="http://www.brattcontra.org/"> http://www.brattcontra.org</a><br />

limits of their artistic interests. Each workshop will touch upon a
different medium, tying in reading and hands-on activities. Kids will
love trying something new and getting to learn about various tools and
materials, and how they have been used by famous artists. Students will
have hands-on creative work-time as well as time to discuss their
projects as a group, see examples, and share ideas freely. Each medium
will provide a different creative challenge and plenty of opportunity
for young artists to express their own vision. Kids will experience the
process of each medium, and will learn about the exciting results they
can achieve through structured projects and activities. Each medium
encourages students to develop skills in artistic foundations such as
color and composition, to strengthen their hand-eye coordination, and to
develop a sense of art appreciation and self-confidence. <a href="http://www.sharonarts.org/" target="_blank"><span style="color: blue;">Website</span></a></span><br />

This beloved story by Hans Christian Anderson is about a misfit
'duckling,' who after being picked on by his siblings for his size and
awkwardness goes out into the wide world in search of acceptance. Using
puppetry and creative visual sets, Vermont's PuppeTree offers a
re-telling of this classic fairytale. This adaptation, created through a
partnership with the Vermont Institute of Natural Sciences, integrates
science, the ecology of birds and their relationship to the audience,
and performing arts. Unique handmade puppets and humor combine for a
show that appeals to children of ages four and up, and their grown-ups,
too.<br />

Making their third trip to Bellows Falls, the Sankofa Dance Theater of
Baltimore, Maryland will present an unforgettable evening of African
dance, storytelling, and drumming on Friday, August 10 at 7:00 P.M. at
the historic Bellows Falls Opera House. Together with The Orchard School
community of East Alstead, New Hampshire, the Sankofa troupe brings to
life a West African folktale, complete with the heartbeat of the drum,
choreographed dance, costumes and scenery – all created by Orchard
School campers in a week-long immersion experience led by Sankofa. The
camp performance will be followed by a striking and culturally steeped
performance by the Sankofa Dance and Drum Theatre rich with spirited
storytelling, powerful drumming and amazing dancing.</div>
<div class="p1">
<br />
Tickets can be purchased by calling The Orchard School office, or the
night of the event beginning at 6:15. They are a sliding fee scale
donation of $10-$20 each. </div>
<div class="p1">
</div>
<div class="p1">
For those who would like an opportunity to share in the exhilarating
experience of African dance and music, Sankofa will also offer two
evenings of classes open to the public. On Tuesday, August 7 and
Thursday, August 8, dance and drum classes will be held in the Great
Room at The Orchard School, 114 Old Settler's Road in East Alstead, New
Hampshire. Dance class runs from 7:00 to 8:00 on both evenings, and the
drum session follows from 8:15 to 9:15. The fee is $12 person, per
class. No experience necessary.</div>

Each week, the combined class and practice sessions will focus on
introducing and reviewing fundamental skills such as 'lead and follow,”

floor, and building vocabulary for your own personal 'tango
conversation.' There will be additional practice time for all dancers
at the end of the evening.<br />
No experience in any dance form is necessary for beginners, and no
partner is needed. Come alone, or bring your friends. Please wear
comfortable clothes and clean dance shoes or heavy socks for easy
pivoting on the floor.</div>

<span lang="EN"><b style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;">Repeats weekly</b><span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;">. For many decades, artists living in
New England have come together in
small social groups to paint and enjoy the art world. The level of
ability is wide ranging and includes virtually all media, oil, acrylic,
watercolor, pastels and more. The painting groups generally paint
together in church basements, Town Halls, and lodge halls throughout the
rural communities. The groups vary in size and an average group size
might be about twenty artists with seven to twelve artists painting
together on a given day. Some group members are just starting out but
others have been painting for decades. Some are self-taught and some
have a formal art education. </span></span><br />

This afternoon we welcome a number of special visitors from the
Vermont Institute of Natural Science (VINS). Live falcons, hawks and
owls provide the lens through which we examine food webs, predator-prey
relationships and the interdependence of the systems that support life.
This first-hand encounter enables participants to understand the
defining characteristics that make a bird a raptor and their adaptations
for life as a predator on the wing. Touchable artifacts and hands-on
materials round out this special experience.</div>

Get to know our Jerseys, sheep, horses, oxen, and chickens through
interactive programs and activities. Explore the barns and calf nursery
and watch the afternoon milking of the herd. Visitors will experience a
first-hand sampling of actual farm work, animals, and agricultural
processes. The authentically restored 1890 Farm House, the center of the
farm and forestry operation a century ago – features the farm manager’s
office, family living quarters – and creamery, where butter was
produced for market. Interactive programs in the farmhouse for visitors
and students interpret 19th century agricultural improvement, butter
production, and domestic life. Engaging exhibits housed in 19th century
barns depict the annual cycle of rural life and work, as well as the
cultural values of Vermont farm families a century ago.</div>

<span lang="EN"><b>Repeats weekly</b>. For many decades, artists living in
New England have come together in
small social groups to paint and enjoy the art world. The level of
ability is wide ranging and includes virtually all media, oil, acrylic,
watercolor, pastels and more. The painting groups generally paint
together in church basements, Town Halls, and lodge halls throughout the
rural communities. The groups vary in size and an average group size
might be about twenty artists with seven to twelve artists painting
together on a given day. Some group members are just starting out but
others have been painting for decades. Some are self-taught and some
have a formal art education. </span><br />

An unusual Christmas present called a
'mogwai' is given to Billy Peltzer (Zach Galligan) by his dad with
three basic rules for caring for the pet: never get him wet, keep him out of
bright light, and never feed him after midnight. When Billy inadvertently
breaks one of the rules, the consequences multiply at an alarming rate that
builds to an explosively suspenseful climax.<br />

The River Valley Full Moon Meditation Group would like to invite the
community to join us in celebrating the Crab Full Moon Festival.
Each month at the time of the full moon, people who are concerned about
the state of the world and humanity as a whole, gather to offer service
by meditating using a scientific form of creative meditation. This form
of meditation helps to step down the spiritual, and healing energies,
available at this specific time for planetary redemption.<br />
<br />
(Please note: This group recognises the new, corrected , star-based astrological calendar.)<br />
Each full moon occurs during a certain zodiacal sign, that serves as a
symbol for the energies available to humanity at that time. Each sign
has a keynote, the keynote for the Crab being, “I build a lighted house,
and therein dwell.” This keynote reminds us that to manifest as souls
in our lives, and through our personality vehicles, we must prepare them
and make them bodies of lighted substance.”<br />
<br />
The Crab Full Moon Festival will be held on Wednesday, Aug. 1st, from
7-9 pm at the Hastings House, Walpole Unitarian Church, Corner of Main
and Union Streets, Walpole, NH. 03608. Meditations are open to the
public and operate on the principle of shared responsibility.<br />
Please join us on the River Valley Full Moon Meditation Group
Facebook page for news, interesting articles and information on
scientific meditation, and why we meditate at the full moon. You may
also email the group on FB or call (802) 536-5024 for more information.<br />

your fists become hooves and your arms become wings. Little ones stare

<br />
A multimedia theatrical reinterpretation of the Russian Folk tale
“Vasilisa the Brave” featuring live musical storytelling and acrobatic
dance theater.
The show has been called a “visual feast”, weaving fantastical video
art and shadow play with sets and costumes that harken back to Jim
Henson’s The Dark Crystal. Maria Pugnetti, playing both narrator and
hero, tells Mabel’s story through an all original musical score that
combines freak folk with a touch of Bjork and the classic bedtime story.
The dynamic dance trio Radha Newsom, Jahnavi Newsom, and Cyndal Ellis
animate the stage with a contemporary fusion of modern dance, capoeira,
acrobatics, and tribal style belly dance. The Mabel Story transports
audiences of all ages on an other-worldly adventure.<br />
<br />
Set in the 1800’s of the American West, The Mabel Story tells the
tale of a girl who loses her mother to typhus on the Oregon Trail. Mabel
is left in the care of a sinister widow and her two daughters who
exploit the young girl. Mabel’s only comfort is an enchanted doll, a
gift from her deceased mother, that consoles and guides her. When Mabel
comes of age, she embarks on a dangerous rite of passage journey through
a surreal wilderness in search of the witch Baba Sova. Along the way
Mabel encounters a magical world of plants and animals, faces certain
death, and, in the end, gains courage and gratitude for the natural
world.<br />
Saturday, July 28th, 7PM at St. Mary Gym, Main St, Claremont, NH.

<i>Kidnapped as a boy and kept as a slave on a pirate ship, young Jacob

Mer people. With fellow shipmate Grant, Jacob escapes and finds refuge
in Granada. But stories of Cerulean Isle, land of the Merfolk, continue

New Hampshire author <b>G.M. Browning</b> has been writing
fiction since elementary school. As an older brother to two, spinning
tales of magic, fantasy and adventure was an important job throughout
childhood. Storytelling is but one passion, as <b>Browning</b>
draws inspiration from the many facets of his life. Playing the guitar,
cruising in his old Firebird, bass fishing and video games are the
simpler joys; though nothing makes him happier than spending time with
his wife, Devin.<br />

Stamp collecting doesn't seem like much of a subject for a play, but
Theresa Rebeck's MAURITIUS brings out the best and worst in its
characters, two half-sisters fighting over their recently deceased
mother's stamp collection, and three men with shady backgrounds and
motives who want to get it. The title Mauritius refers to an island off
the coast of Africa from which a now highly collectible stamp, described
as the 'crown jewel of philately', was issued in the age of Victoria.
Directed by Sam Pilo and performed by Emily Seymour, Mark Ziter, Nick
Bombicino, Bob Gruen and Abby Wicker.
“MAURITIUS” plays on Thursday, Friday and Saturday evenings July 26
through August 8. Tickets on Thursdays are $12 (Students $6); Fridays
$15 (Students $8) and Saturdays all tickets are $15. Reservations are
strongly recommended. Curtain time is 7:30 for all performances. Call

No experience in any dance form is necessary for beginners, and no
partner is needed. Come alone, or bring your friends. Please wear
comfortable clothes and clean dance shoes or heavy socks for easy

<span lang="EN"><b>Repeats weekly</b>. For many decades, artists living in
New England have come together in
small social groups to paint and enjoy the art world. The level of
ability is wide ranging and includes virtually all media, oil, acrylic,
watercolor, pastels and more. The painting groups generally paint
together in church basements, Town Halls, and lodge halls throughout the
rural communities. The groups vary in size and an average group size
might be about twenty artists with seven to twelve artists painting
together on a given day. Some group members are just starting out but
others have been painting for decades. Some are self-taught and some
have a formal art education. </span></div>
<div style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;">
</div>
<span lang="EN">There is no formal instruction at group meetings.
Artists simply learn from one another by observing and asking questions
when they see something that interests them.</span><br />
