The Lofte Community Theatre announces that its summer musical, "Annie," will open Friday, July 22, 2011.    

Annie” is a spunky Depression-era orphan determined to find her parents, who abandoned her years ago on the doorstep of a New York City Orphanage run by the cruel, embittered Miss Hannigan. Soon Annie befriends President Franklin Delano Roosevelt and finds a new family and home in billionaire Oliver Warbucks, his personal secretary Grace Farrell and a loveable mutt named Sandy.

Ellie Swanson of Lincoln stars in the title role.  Kris Raasch (also of Lincoln) plays he cantankerous Oliver Warbucks.  Anna Stroebel of Omaha plays the conniving Miss Hannigan.  The production is directed by Lofte Artistic Director, Kevin Colbert.  

Performance dates are July 22-24, 28-31 and August 4-7.  Curtain times are 7:30pm on Thursdays, Fridays and Saturdays.  Sundays are 2pm matinees.  Tickets for adults are $18.  For this production only, children under the age of 12 are only $10.

CASS COUNTY FAIR 2010 CAKE AUCTION

CASS COUNTY FAIR 4-H AUCTIONS

Cass County Fair 4-H Auction Supporters (family, friends, businesses, alumni) are

invited to show support for Cass County 4-Hers by attending one of two 4-H auctions

held during the Cass County Fair.

The 4-H cake auction starts at 6:30 p.m. on Tuesday evening August 9, at the

open air auditorium on the Cass County fairgrounds. It provides an opportunity

to purchase fancy or decorated cakes, pies, and/or specialty breads baked and

decorated by 4-H members. The proceeds of this event will be divided between

the participating 4-Her and the Cass County 4-H Council. 4-H Council funds

raised at this event help sponsor activities for 4-H members throughout the year.

Auction supporters are invited to stay for the Fashion Show/Awards program

following the auction. A Sneak Peek and Refreshments will be held for everyone

at the 4-H Building following this event.

The 4-H Livestock Auction starts at 3 p.m. on Sunday afternoon, August 14, in

the livestock barn. Livestock judging awards will be presented to the 4-Hers

before the auction at 2:45 p.m. The Cass County 4-H Council clerks this

premium sale which is held for market animals only. Each exhibitor is allowed to

sell one animal of each species as premium only, meaning dollars per head not

cents per pound. Exhibitors retaining ownership will only receive the premium

from the sale. Exhibitors of shipped animals will receive the premium from the

buyer in addition to the sale proceeds from the buyer of the animal.
