Herland Supper Club

This month the Herland Supper Club will eat at La Luna’s, 409 W. Reno, at 6 pm on Saturday, October 9th. Following dinner, the activity will be the OKC Theatre Company’s production of Always, Patsy Cline.

A heartfelt and moving tribute to the Queen of country music, Always, Patsy Cline follows the meteoric rise of a small town girl to the heights of fame and chronicles the relationship between her and a pen pal in Texas. Seen through her eyes, we learn of the heartache and loss which Patsy encounters during her travels as a country music legend. (As a bonus, our friend Louise Goldberg is musical director for the show!)

Tickets are $16 for adults, $12 for students/seniors. Call 1-800-364-7111 to reserve tickets. The production will be at the Civic Center Little Theatre just around the corner from La Luna’s. Meet at Herland at 5:30 pm if you wish to carpool.

Herland Video Night
October’s Video Night will be October 30th at Herland, starting at 7 pm. This month’s video will be a surprise and will be viewed on a new TV with a larger screen.

One of our campers lost a piece of luggage at the retreat a few weeks ago at Robber’s Cave. If you happen to find it in the trunk of your car, looking lost and lonely, and you wonder, “what in the world is that,” please call us at 521-9696 and we will arrange to get it. Its owner is from California and desperately needs its return.
