From my notebook:

  • What if your future was assigned to you at age twelve? What if your life contained no pain and no fear, but also no choice and no joy? THE GIVER, based on the award-winning book by Lois Lowry, explores these questions. With only five performances remaining, this beautiful play is a brilliant conversation starter for families.

  • The Humane Society for Greater Savannah would like you to meet Woodie who greets everyone walking through the hallway with a wave and a smile. His coat is made up of puzzle pieces and he is friendly and energetic! He has been given a new lease on life thanks to HSGS. He came in undernourished and with a skin condition, and now he is a gorgeous hunk of love looking for his forever family. (Facebook)
