Ladies and Gentlemen, boys and girls, families, friends and everybody else! Halloween is almost upon us, which means Christmas is almost upon us!

If you are like me and my family, the holiday season gets real busy real fast, what with the shopping and the dinner parties and the shopping and the decorating, and the shopping and the TV specials and the shopping... you get my drift. :) Unfortunately, all the hustle and bustle leaves little time to spend with  my loved ones, the whole reason for those two weeks of vacation time, am I right?

Well, if you, or someone you know, has my holiday scheduling problem, I have the perfect solution, the perfect way to celebrate Christmas and to spend time with those people we hold near and dear...

BE IN A PLAY!

That's right! Come and audition for the Osceola Center for the Arts' production of "The Best Christmas Pageant Ever!" and bring your family along! All ages are welcomed and encouraged. That means Moms and Dads, brothers and sisters, Grandparents, cousins... everyone!

Auditions are November 2nd and 3rd at the Osceola Center for the Arts.

But what if you can't be there? No worries... come and see the show! Production dates are December 12th-21st. Call the box office for ticket reservations. Get on it quick, 'cause this show is just like St. Nick... it only comes once a year, and you sure don't want to miss it!
