DON’T MISS THIS TIMELESS HOLIDAY CLASSIC!

9 SHOWS ONLY! GET TICKETS NOW www.RiverbendPlayers.org

MEET THE CAST AND DIRECTOR: FRANK SQUILLO

As a husband, father of two, owner of Wanda’s Cafe + Bakery, President of the Riverbend Players’ board of directors, and Vice-Chair of the Manzanita Planning Commission, Frank stays busy but always finds time for his passion—directing.

He’s thrilled to be directing his sixth production following the smash hit THE PLAY THAT GOES WRONG, which he directed last June.

Frank is the voice of Old Man Potter and various other characters and enjoys that he didn’t have to memorize any lines to be in this type of production (radio play).

IT’S A WONDERFUL LIFE: A LIVE RADIO PLAY transforms the beloved holiday classic into a 1940s radio broadcast.

Set in a live studio, actors portray the story of George Bailey, a man who, feeling his life has been meaningless, is shown by an angel what the world would be like without him.

With live sound effects and multiple characters, the play captures the heartwarming tale of family, friendship, and finding hope when needed most.

Nine performances only, December 6th – 22nd, at the NCRD Performing Arts Center in Nehalem.

Friday and Saturday nights at 7:00 PM and Sunday matinees at 2:00 PM

Tickets at www.RiverbendPlayers.org

All new season passes are on sale, saving you 20% off the regular price and securing your favorite seats for every show next year.

It makes the perfect holiday gift for any theater lover!

Christmas Bazaar and Clam Chowder Lunch

Submitted By: jennie1550@yahoo.com – Click to email about this post
The Ladies at Nehalem Bay United Methodist Church invite you to add our Christmas Bazaar to your list of places to visit this coming Saturday the 7th. I see White Clover is hosting their winter sale the same day. What a great day to explore all the goodies that our little community has to offer.

The Bazaar starts at 10:00 with Clam Chowder and pie lunch serving from 11:00-2:00. You know the church has made chowder every year at this time since……well it’s been many years. I’ve been told it’s the best Chowder around and in my opinion it’s true.

So stop by and see what you can find for stocking stuffers, gifts, silent auction items, candy and baked goods. Something for everyone!!!!

Then run out 53 to the Grange and check out their offerings.

Merry Christmas.

Tall Ship Sailboat Prints

Submitted By: rogerdcampana@me.com – Click to email about this post
Contact: Roger, mobile 360-359-1253(I could only post 3 photos, but links to print info below)

Four framed vintage prints of the sailing vessels: Swiftsure, Lord Lowther, Alastor, and Madagascar. Great gift for Coastal resident or house warming, or anyone with an interest in sailing vessels. These are all framed and have been in controlled climate. $175(cash) is a steal for all 4, OBO. I will not be hanging on to these, and will likely donate to the Maritime Museum in Astoria otherwise.

Clipper Swiftsure: www.finerareprints.com/clipper-ship-swiftsure-26126

Example description: “Clipper Ship Swiftsure, 1326 tons: This ship was one of the exceptions of the Greenfleet in that she was built at Boston U.S.A. As a result she was made of American soft wood instead of oak. The Swiftsure was specially commissioned to carry emigrants to Australia in the boom periods of the 1855. Her interior, therefore, was not fitted out to give the luxurious accommodation which was enjoyed in most of the sailing ships of this period. Moreover, with soft Wood instead of oak, she would have had to shorten sail in heavy weather to prevent overstraining, well before her sisters. Nevertheless, she was a well built ship and recorded many fine performances.This lithograph was made in the 1950s by litho-offset on very high quality, thick paper. The paper is creamy white and in excellent condition.”

Concert Deb Montgomery to benefit Tillamook food Pantry

Submitted By: Debmontgomery@gmail.com – Click to email about this post
Join me for a short and sweet concert at St. Catherine’s Episcopal Church on Hwy 101 Saturday Dec 14th at 4pm … I’ll sing a collection of my own songs and sprinkle in a few Christmas Advent tunes in… this is the third year I’ve done this and most people have said they found it good soul company and restoration … Because when the world feels like it’s falling apart, art can heal and mend. Because when someone feels like they are the only one feeling what they are feeling, art is company and love. Because art is light. Because art is balm. Because art is a songbird’s song. Because art is the walls breaking down around us. Because music songs can be love and life. Tears are welcome as well as Kleenex and journals …

The Table

Come with your fear

Come with all that you hold so dear

Come with your longing and your hoping

and your tears

Come with your heart

Come while you heal and fall apart

Come with your pockets emptied

on the table of time

Waiting for a Love

Waiting for a Life

Waiting for a light

to pierce this night

to pierce this night

Holy things reach

Holy things find the dark and teach

Holy things bend in time

they feel the wind and rhyme

Holy things need

Holy things need the burning Sun

holy things come together

and they come undone
