Thanks, Sandra. We all appreciate your keeping us in the loop.
Hi, folks:
It's another great week of events here in Chattanooga, begun by a sweep by
the hometown Mocs cagers. Way to go!
If you haven't gotten your tickets to Ailey II on Sunday the 11th at 7:30
pm, please call the box office at 425-4269 today or stop by at 324 Fine
Arts Center. This promises to be a great event, and sales are brisk. We
would hate for you to miss experiencing this wonderful troupe.
For information about Ailey II, see the web site at
http://www.alvinailey.org/ailey2.asp. The company's 2004 spring tour is
supported by MetLife, and the company's activities in Chattanooga are
supported by Southern Arts Federation.
See you Sunday.
Kim
