NYC members enjoy weekly one-hour rehearsals, twice-yearly retreats, area performances and tours (grades 5 and older). The organization's choirs are divided by age, and singers of all levels of experience in grades 1-12 are welcome to participate. Scholarships are available.
Summer Adventure Girls is a program for 4th-6th grade girls. We meet in the meeting room of the Norfield Library every Wednesday from 4-5pm and all take turns reading aloud for the hour. We choose books with strong female characters and provide them for the girls each week. Once we finish a book we have a fun activity or event (often times requiring permission slips from partents). Everyone is welcome to join us at anytime of the program.
The program starts June 25th and will go through the August 20th and will most likely pick up again in mid September. Our first book will be Caddie Woodlawn by Carol Ryrie Brink.
Be a Messenger of Peace
"I will write peace on your wings and you will fly all over the world."
With these words, 12-year-old Sadako Sasaki wrote her legacy and opened new avenues in the quest for peace in the world.
You are invited to share in this legacy by writing your message of peace and folding it into a paper crane and sharing it with others at the Hiroshima Peace Day event on Wednesday, August 6 at the Northfield Public Library from 5 to 6:45 p.m.
Sadako was two years old when she was exposed to radiation during the bombing of Hiroshima on August 6, 1945. This exposure led to leukemia which was diagnosed ten years later. She began to fold origami paper cranes after her friend reminded her of the legend about folding a thousand paper cranes in order to live to be very old.
An informational forum will be held for people interested in learning about alternative citizen-sponsored activities to occur in the Twin Cities in response to the Republican National Convention in St. Paul.
Sponsored by Northfield People for Peace and Goodwill (PPG), the event at 7 p.m. Wednesday, Aug. 6, in the Northfield Public Library will feature short presentations by representatives from five Twin Cities organizations.
