Community Ed schedules trip

NEW ULM – New Ulm Community Education has scheduled a trip to the Plymouth Playhouse for “Late Night Catechism” on Saturday, April 18.

This play will take the audience back to their youth. Sister Mary Ignatious has been asked to teach the adult Catechism class. Naughty students may well find themselves on stage sitting in a corner reflecting on their actions. However, even the most reluctant ‘students’ will be clamoring to get into this Sister’s class. Part Catechism class, part stand-up routine, this one-woman show is the best!

Fees ($75/person) include the charter bus transportation, lunch and show. Please register by March 27.
