Please find attached the weekly news update for this week. Feel free to send to anyone that you think will find it useful. Some valuable Driving Tips for the Icy Weather we are having over the next 2 days. • Decrease your speed and leave yourself plenty of room to stop. • Brake gently to avoid skidding. If your wheels start to lock up, ease off the brake. • Be especially careful on bridges and overpasses, which will freeze first. • Don't pass snow plows and sanding trucks. The drivers have limited visibility, and you're likely to find the road in front of them worse than the road behind

22. McCain Holiday Home Tour
Sunday, December 8, 2013
11:00 – 5:00pm
The Friends of McCain Auditorium have announced the McCain Holiday Home Tour for
2013. The event, set for Sunday, December 8, 2013 from 11 a.m.- 5:00 p.m., is a biennial
fundraiser for McCain Auditorium and will feature five area residences and one sorority house
decorated for the holiday season. Money raised from this event will help support the McCain
Performance Series and its education and outreach activities. Selection and coordination of
homes begins as much as a year in advance to allow homeowners adequate time to plan and
prepare for the event.
“The McCain Performance Series and its outreach and education programs such as free
children’s performances are largely supported by corporate sponsorships, individual giving,
grants, and fundraising events such as the Holiday Home Tour,” said Todd Holmberg,
director of McCain Auditorium. “The tour makes it possible to present world class events at
McCain on a yearly basis. The community also enjoys touring the homes and seeing a
snapshot of the homeowner’s holiday traditions.”
The Tour will Feature:
•Kappa Delta House, 1220 Centennial Drive
•Jamie and Kim McAtee home, 2710 Heartland Valley Road
•Jim Sherow and Bonnie Lynn-Sherow bed and breakfast home, 617 Colorado Street
•Howard and Patricia Sherwood, 5140 Founders Way
•Dennis and Sally von Waaden home, 5132 Founders Way
•Kevin and Alyn Pennington West home, 321 North 16th Street
Tickets will be $20 in advance, $25 at
the door, and will be available at several
area business outlets in the fall.
The McCain Holiday Home Tour
Committee is co-chaired by Dori
Milldyke and Jim Reed. For more
information on the Tour, please call
