Faith Acts, a theater group based at Shelton's Faith Lutheran Church, will present "Narnia: The Musical" this March. The musical is based on C.S. Lewis' "The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe," published in 1950, of"The Chronicles of Narnia" series.

"It's a great story," she said. "It's a classic story of good versus evil. It really is a Chris- tian allegory." In the story, set during World War II in England, four young siblings are sent to live in the country with a professor. The children explore the house and find a wardrobe that transports them to the fantastical world of Narnia. The play's cast includes 36 actors, ranging from about 10 years old to their 80s, Olson said. People in other churches and community groups are invited to participate in Faith Acts productions. When directing the actors, Olson said she encourages them to do more than just read lines in the script. ' rou create a story for the audience. You create a reality," she said.

We will catch up with the Hartstene Pointe Travel Club and attend the play "Carousel." We will have lunch at the Rock Bottom Caf before heading across to The 5th Avenue Theater. I think we are go- ing to have a great ~.. MIKE time and all of this will be on my birth- day -- nice! The next travel club event will take place Feb. 24 when a group of 25 will head to McCormick Woods in Port Orchard for lunch. Remember, tomorrow will be Friday the 13th -- and a Harstine Island Commu- nity Club meeting. So, plan on showing up at the hall about 6 p.m. with a potluck dish and enjoy an evening with island friends. It's hard to believe, but spring is just around the corner, so I'm sure there will be talk about upcoming summer activities at the hall and the new 2015 membership drive. CALLAGHAN SEWING GROUP CHANGES DATES The Harstine Is- land sewing group will now meet on the third Tuesday of the month instead of the fourth. It will be at Kathy Earl's this month. A NEW INQUIRING MINDS PRESENTER The next Inquiring Minds presentation will be Feb. 22 and the starting time will be moved up to 1:45 p.m. The presenter will be Julia Har- rison. She is an author, art- ist and anthropologist. The title for her presentation will be "Ripe for the Telling: Sur, prising Stories of Washington Fruit." Billions of dollars of income to Washington state comes from fruit, so this should be a powerful presen- tation. SENIOR LUNCH AT IT AGAIN On Feb. 18, the Senior lunch crew will serve hot beef sandwiches, mashed potatoes and gravy, veggies and Mary's dessert. As usual, doors open about a half hour before noon and serving starts right at noon. Getting there a little early gives you time to meet and visit with your is- land neighbors. They o yask for a $3 donation to pay for the basic food costs. CRAB, CLAMS AND SPAGHETti The things I always look forward to this time of year are the seafood dinners that are put on around the county. The annual Pioneer School Crab, Clam and Spaghetti Dinner will be March 14. Serving will start at 4:30 p.m. There will be a silent auc- tion with a live auction start- ing at 6 p.m. The crab and clams are just about as fresh as you can get as they will have been caught and dug the day before. All proceeds from this fundraiser go back to the school in the form of scholarships, nurses' needs, field trips, law-enforcement camp, reading programs and more. The club is seek- • ing,auction items --if you or your business can donate something, organizers would appreciate it. Now that the club is a 501(c)(3) organiza- tion, these donations are tax- deductible. Tickets are $25 for adults and $12 for children ages 12 and under. Judy and I have tickets orify0u know any Kiwanis member, they will have tickets. OYSTERS AND HAM Then there will be the 58th annual Oyster and Ham Dinner at the Shelton Yacht Club.
