Riverfront Playhouse Potluck Buyout May 2024
Our annual event was held May 16, 2024.
“Fowl Play in French Gulch”
A great comedy that had us all laughing. No chance of falling asleep through this hilarious western.
An interactive play that had us cheering for the hero, booing for the villain and sighing for the sweet young thing. Apparently written capturing the theme of a melodrama and vaudeville shows.
April 2024 Notes
Written by Mary Stephenson
#1 Lion Charlie requested we take the left over packets of goodies from the Basketball game to Sycamore School.
Arrived at the awkward time of dodging the school homeward bound kids. With school buses, parents in cars, and numerous kids lined up waiting for their transportation rescues from their day of learning.
Found a parking spot and hoped by the time we left the office it would be thinned out, and it was.
2024 Student Speaker Contest
This year is the 87th annual Student Speakers Contest.
February 15, 2024 was our annual Student Speaker Contest.
The theme this year was: “For a Better World What Would You Change?”
Collectively I feel that this year’s speakers did a really super great job. All U-Prep students.

Christmas Party 2023
December 9, 2023
Just got back from a fantastic feast. (No kidding, it was really good!) Biscuits and gravy, perfectly cooked sausages, yummy seasoned fried potatoes, scrambled eggs, etc. Once the Christmas season is over and all the tree decorations are put away, and the chocolates are all gone, maybe we can get back to serious healthy behaviors.
I applaud Lion John, Lion Melanie, and all the other Lions (and spouses) that made this event a terrific success. Nice cozy little gathering, enjoyed many laughs and great conversations. A game to test our Christmas knowledge, which most of us did poorly, even if the bell curve was used we failed. Singing: we did a little better. The piano player did a great job of entertaining us as we relished in the delightful brunch.
