*CSI Theatre Department Presents: The Night Thoreau Spent in Jail
In 1846, Henry David Thoreau spent a night in jail for refusing to pay his taxes as a way to protest the United States’ involvement in the Mexican War. Playwrights Jerome Lawrence and Robert Lee (Inherit the Wind) take this incident and spin it into an interesting and very provocative drama that weaves dream sequences in and out of the past and present as Thoreau serves out his short sentence, giving us a very intimate look at what Thoreau’s mindset might have been, even before he penned his own reflections on Civil Disobedience.

*Idaho Alpine Club General Meeting - "Rowing to Alaska"
Pete Oslund was an avid climber when he severely injured his legs in a fall while doing repairs on the roof of his church. Unfortunately, he had to give up climbing and find a new pursuit. Casting about for a new activity, he took up kayaking- but in a big way. He designed and built a wooden kayak and fitted it with oarlocks and proceeded to row it 1200 miles from Bellingham, WA to Sitka, AK over the course of two summers. He rowed on the rainy days as well as the sunny ones and camped on the shoreline wherever his day ended, sometimes in places frequented by grizzly bears. What is most inspiring about Pete is that he rowed to Alaska at an age when many of us would choose to cruise the world on a comfortable recliner encamped in front of a TV. So come and enjoy Pete's slide show of this memorable trip.

The meeting is open to the public. All outdoor enthusiasts are invited to attend.

*"Woodstock" at the Herrett Center
Students in the College of Southern Idaho’s Cabinetmaking and Welding programs have scheduled their 18th annual Christmas show and auction, “Woodstock,” Friday and Saturday, Dec. 7 and 8 in the Rick Allen Community Room at the Herrett Center for Arts and Science.

Woodstock Club president Marian Frix says students from each club have increased their efforts to provide more and even finer quality works in this year’s show than in the past. For the first time, CSI Culinary Arts students will also join the event, selling specially made treats and refreshments during the viewing and auction portions of the event. They will also have elaborate gingerbread houses for sale.

More than 20 large wooden items will be displayed and sold, including an 1890 style covered wagon bench, a maple executive desk, mahogany and cedar hope chests, an oak mission style table and end tables, mahogany and red oak poker table, and a bed frame crafted from logs of mountain mahogany. There will be gun cases, armoires, chests of drawers, apothecary, and fireplace mantle. Smaller items such as fruit bowls, game and cutting boards, some made of very exotic wood such as purple heart, will be displayed and sold. Welding students will be displaying decorative art works and other metal cut-outs, coat racks, and trailer hitch covers. Money raised from the event will help the students attend next spring’s Homebuilders Show in Orlando.

The public is encouraged to visit the display from 1 to 9 p.m. Friday, Dec. 7 in the Herrett Center’s Rick Allen Community room. Additional viewing will be from 1 to 2:30 p.m. Saturday, Dec. 8. Bidding begins at 2:30 p.m. Saturday.
