Starting last year, the Prairie Soul Dance Company has offered two different musical theatre classes. This gives students who love musical theatre a chance to be involved at a much more focused level than they would be just through annual high school productions.

The City Harmonic, a Canadian band from Hamilton, Ontario, will perform at Providence University College on Friday, September 2, as part of the school’s Welcome Week festivities. The free concert will begin at 7:30 p.m.

In addition to the five-kilometre run/walk at this year’s annual Imagine Run at Hespeler Park in Niverville, the Imagine team has organized a full day of entertainment geared for the whole family.

In 2013, 28-year-old Drew Cook passed away suddenly of a heart condition that he didn’t know he had. A year later, his widow, Ashley Humphrey, decided to host a fundraiser in his memory called Heaps of Dreeps.

“We wanted to do something in memory of him and thought, what better way to do it than to have a huge summer end party, all the while raising money for a great cause?” Humphrey says. “It also raises awareness of heart disease [to] maybe prevent this from happening to someone else.”

This year’s event will be the third Heaps of Dreeps fundraiser and will be held on September 10. The event runs from 1:00 p.m. until 3:00 a.m. Children are free and allowed until 6:00 p.m. There will be games, a bouncy castle, and face-painting for kids.

Every summer, Rainbow Stage in Kildonan Park puts on two different plays. This year, the performances are Cash: Ring of Fire and Shrek.
