Flowers are blooming and April is underway. It has been great to see the many signs of spring in our community. There is something positive about riding by a little league field or seeing a soccer practice in the park. It is inspiring to see farmers preparing their fields for planting. It’s great to see green returning to our trees and lawns.

For me, April represents the musical season. It is a very busy time for my students, co-directors, and myself at the school right now. Check out our show, ‘TARZAN’ with more information in this week’s Luminary. There will be two performances to choose from.
