Updated January 12th: Andrea Andreas is still looking for some judges for the auditions and show. Preferably folks with talents in music and/or dance.
For those who are new to the club and/or unfamiliar, Stars of Tomorrow is a talent show for K-12 kids in our community. Stars of Tomorrow is a national program sponsored by Kiwanis and has a long history in Cheyenne--this will be our 69th show!
I am working on the details for the show, but will not be able to finalize things until after the first of the year. This is because the school district does not allow booking of its facilities more than 90 days in advance. Tentatively, the plan is as follows:
We had hoped to hold rehearsal and the show at the Surbrugg/Prentice Auditorium at LCCC, but they do not have dates that work for our needs.
| EVENT DESCRIPTION | DATE | TIME | LOCATION |
| Elementary auditions | 3/14 | 5:30-9:30 p.m. | East High |
| Junior High/High School auditions | 3/15 | 5:30-9:30 p.m. | East High |
| Rehearsal | 4/15 | 8:30 a.m.-3:30 p.m. | Central High |
| Show | 4/16 | 12:00-5:00 p.m. | Central High |
We had hoped to hold rehearsal and the show at the Surbrugg/Prentice Auditorium at LCCC, but they do not have dates that work for our needs.
There are a number of jobs for volunteers, including but not limited to:
Judging at auditions
Stage crew
Program ad sales
Contestant "wrangler"
Publicity
Awards coordinator
Food donations
Food preparation/serving
Sound
I've been fortunate to have a great crew of volunteers over the past couple of years, but I'd love to give them some assistance while getting new folks involved. That's where you come in!
Please let me know if you're interested in joining the Stars of Tomorrow crew. Email me at lwalter@wvista.com or call/text (315) 427-5612.
Thanks,
Lorrell Walter
The first unpacking of the school year was on Saturday, August 6, 2022. Same place: North side of Element Church, 600 East Carlson.
There will be fillings every Tuesday at 5:30 pm, except when school is out.
The next unpacking is scheduled for October 8 at 9 am.
Also please note: There is not, for various reasons, a Kiwanis attendance sheet available each Tuesday for Friday Food Bag fillings. For attendance credit, simply send Tom Roberts an e-mail [troberts@hotmail.com], and he will enter your attendance on the Club website.
Club/committee members who need propane tanks for their project are asked to first use partially full tanks, before they start a new one. Why? The fill charge for each tank, whether it is partially full or empty, makes no difference, is $75 per tank. The charge is a flat rate, with no proportional credit for topping off a partially full tank. It cost in the neighborhood of $825 when the tanks were last topped off, and much of that went toward topping off partially full tanks.
So, if you need propane, take and use a partially full tank and, if you think that may not be enough, take a full tank as a backup.
Your cooperation is appreciated by the Club's budget.
For the information of everyone who would like to loan out Kiwanis Club-owned equipment, please see the Download Files section to the left of this homepage and comply with the policy stated therein. The general ground rules and necessary loan request/maintenance fee sheet and indemnification form are included in this file. Only requests accompanied by fully completed paperwork will be considered. This includes listing the stovetender, transportation and food you have arranged, and other considerations that must be made for the project to work. The Quartermaster does not have the time to do all of the ground work for you. Your cooperation is appreciated.
