We have new folks in town, and that means some that have never
been to the Fire Department Fish Fry before. Friends, New Neighbors, this is a must attend event!
There is no other event, with the possible exception of LHS vs Weeping
Water homecoming in Louisville that is as widely attended by all the
Community.
It is a chance to make sure all your neighbors are surviving
the winter, to see and to be seen. and have a Community Meal together.
Beyond the social gig:
Two Important Facts:
1) This is one of our
Louisville Volunteers Biggest Annual Fund Raisers - They Buy Everything
from Emergency Medical Supplies, to Fire Protective Coats - This ain't no big city fire dept, these guys pay for a lot of supplies themselves if funds
get short. Lets go over that again, these guys pay for the priviledge of giving their time, and risking their necks for you. WOW!! We need to show that we appreciate them!
Your family might benefit from more than just the coleslaw, so be
a big tipper if you like the fishand remember to thank these guys for their service.
Hey that same guy, serving you the fish might give you a free ride to the Hospital some night.
2) Best Fish Anywhere!
- Year after Year our Volunteers have figured out how to make their
fish, better, fresher, crispier, flakier - just fabulous! with all the
sides to make a complete meal. It is worth the money to just get a
plate of coleslaw it is so tasty.
So
do your tummy a favor, do the Community a favor and show our Brave
Volunteers that we appreciate all the hours they contribute, and the
risks they take for us.
5PM Friday - Firebarn - Be There or Be Square!
The Dinner featured special guest Speaker Senator Dave Pankonin and many Business, and Community Leaders.
The new Plaque that hangs in the City Office bears the names of this years winners, as it will year after year from now on. It is a fitting continuation of the Lynn Berner-Smith memorial flag outside of the City Office - the Founder of BUILD.

Double
Trouble or Double Happiness? Kevin Colbert (center) plays the hapless
cabby married two different women in Mahoney State Park's latest theater
production, "Run For Your Wife." Also pictured, Shari Hoelker (left) and

KBC productions announces that its
latest comedy opens on Saturday,
March 7th at Mahoney State Park. "Run For Your Wife," written by Ray
Cooney, is a favorite of many area theater-goers. The raucus comedy
was performed at the Lofte Community Theatre in 1992 and met with huge
success.
The story revolves around a hapless taxi
driver who, due to his irregular work schedule, is getting away with having
two wives living in different areas of town. Complications, cover-ups
and flamboyant neighbors add to the tension as the cabby tries to keep his
double life from exploding.
The cast includes Kevin Colbert of Weeping
Water, Millard Carnes of Plattsmouth, Shari Hoelker, Stacy White and Nathan
Jordan of Omaha, and Jim Knierim and Jamion Biesterfeld of
Louisville.
Performance dates are March 7-8, 13-15,
20-22, 27-29, April 3-5, 11, and 17-19. Curtain Times are 7:30pm on
Fridays and Saturdays; 2pm on Sundays. Tickets are $8 for adults, $6 for
children under 12 and may be purchased by calling the Park office at
(402)944-2523 ext. 7122.

Mardi Gras
Decorations
With a true New
Orelans Mardi Gras flare, the Lofte kicked off its 2009 season on Saturday,
February 28th. While the premise of the gathering was to go over
financials and announce new season shows, the evening invariably turned into
a fun-filled family reunion complete with good food and lots of
laughs.
Board Chairman,
Larry Bauers, announced winners of the "Dale Crosby Outstanding Volunteer
Awards." Candidates are selected by the Board of Directors for their
quality and quanity of volunteer hours spent at the Lofte during the preceeding
year. Linda Dabbs from Louisville was recongized for her outstanding
talent for painting sets. Linda was extremely touched by the
recognition and swore that, "I'll be here as long as you need me!"
John Plucknett,
also from Louisville, won the award for oustanding car parker and usher. A
blushing Mr. Plucknett accepted the award stating, "When my wife suggested that
I start coming out here to help, I just didn't know because I've always thought
that Theater People were different. Now that I've been here for a while I
realize that . . . Theater people ARE different." His comment drew roars
of laugher and applause from the crowd.
The award for Best
Overall Volunteer during 2008 went to Melinda Mead of Plattsmouth. While a
relative newcomer to the Lofte (she debuted on stage in 2007) she has proven
herself to be a great resource. Melinda has not only acted in three Lofte
productions, but has worked as stage manager, built set, helped with the Lofte
Acting School and everything inbetween. One of her duties
this summer that displayed her level of dedication was the chore of
ironing seven children's pinnafores each night during the season's smash
hit, "The Sound of Music."
Kevin Colbert was recognized for his twenty-five years as
the Lofte's Artistic Director.
Kevin Colbert was
also recognized for his twenty-five years as Artistic Director. Kevin
first started on the Lofte stage during its first production in 1977 and in 1985
was hired on as a full-time independent contractor responsible for
producing all four of the Lofte's season shows. Chairman Larry Bauers
presented Kevin with an 18-volt cordless drill set. Board member Anne
Pope presented Kevin with an engraved clock.
The evening ended
with Kevin Colbert presenting a funny slide show of pictures from the 2008
season and his memories of the volunteers that made each show
special. Kevin requested that everyone,
especially men, consider auditioning at the Lofte for one or more
of the plays 2009. The Lofte is always looking for new talent and more
importantly, new friends.

From the Editor
Groundhog Envy
Our Unadilla Neighbor
It is strange to step back and see the City through the eyes of someone from elsewhere.
Not a bad picture at all, just a little weird. Starts with a royal be-heading, ends with a dynamighting hobo, packed with feather boas. Ok, yeah.. that's us!
--------------------------------------------------
That said, we are in the process of looking at a new neighbor for the first time, Unadilla. As we develop www.UnadillaNebraska.com we get to learn all about another small Nebraska bunch, with their history and traditions.
These are great folks, and they are the Groundhog Capital of Nebraska and that is pretty much undisputed.
We just missed the Groundhog Days festival, and it really looks like they had a great time.We have been asked to put a count-down to Groundhog Days counter on the website
(Irina is working on it!)
The Groundhog Days Parade
the Groundhog Days Royalty
Maybe we should get our own municipal rodent!
