On Tuesday from 5:00 – 7:00 PM in the auditorium is a National Security Seminar led by national security expert Col. Thomas P. Ehrhard, USAF, retired. Tom started his own national security think-tank, ORION Long-Term Strategy, in March 2020.

Ehrhard will be joined by John Manza, who was a senior fellow with the Transatlantic Security Initiative at the Atlantic Council’s Scowcroft Center for Strategy and Security.

Lite bites will be provided for this event by Bodega Catering. This event is free and open to the public.

Friday at 7:30 PM is the first of two nights of stage plays from Central Michigan University’s Summer Theater Program, Plotters. It’s a Grave Business! Set in the macabre world of 19th-century grave robbing, where infamy, riches and the darkest secrets of the city collide in this fast-paced comedy by two-time Fringe First Award winner Brian Parks. A clandestine cabal of misfits attempt their ultimate heist. Will these agents of the night seize the coveted prize – or bury themselves?

Then on Saturday at 7:30 PM is the second show of the two-night series, the musical You’re a Good Man, Charlie Brown. Based on the comic strip Peanuts by Charles M. Schulz, follow Charlie Brown and the entire Peanuts gang as they explore life’s great questions as they play baseball, struggle with homework, sing songs, swoon over their crushes and celebrate the joy of friendship. Directed and Choreographed by Anne McAlexander, with music directed by Mina Son. Both nights are Ticketed Reserved Seat Events. All seats $20 for adults and $10 for students 18 and under.
