The Engadine Senior High Drama Club certainly deserve a huge round of applause for their performances Friday, April 15, and Saturday, April 16, in two short comedies entitled "Skid Marks" and "The Apple." They couldn't have done better if they had been on Broadway. Of course, the comic ad-libbing by some members made the comedy even more funny. The audience left the building laughing, having thoroughly enjoyed both performances. They all acted very professionally.

There is another group of youngsters called the "Wee Bops" who perform in Manistique. The Wee Bops Children's Musical Production will perform "Let's Go to the Movies," Friday, April 22, at 7 p.m., and Sunday, April 24, at 2 p.m., in the Manistique High School Auditorium. Admission is $3 or a freewill donation. This is a group of young, to very young, children who do a great job of entertaining. You won't be disappointed. For more information, call Christi at (906) 341-6385.

All of you animal lovers may be interested to know that the sixth annual benefit dinner will be Sunday, April 24, from noon to 3 p.m., at the Manistique Senior Center, to benefit the Humane Society of Schoolcraft County.
