Alice in Wonderland Takes the Bridgeland

Lakeland Heights Festival Park by Storm…Literally

Submitted by Candice KoernBridgeland residents came out to enjoy the premier community

production of Alice in Wonderland September 11 and 12. In spite of Sunday’s stormy weather just prior to the schedule start time on, crowds gathered with lawn chairs and umbrellas to catch their talented neighbors take the stage. Alice, played by Madi Nelson, captured the audience’s heart as she traveled to a far off place down the rabbit hole. She met a Cheshire Cat, played by Mia Koern, a Mad Hatter, played by Tony Lewis and many more fascinating characters. The 38 actors rehearsed over the summer holiday to ready themselves for this unique opportunity to perform at the Lakeland Heights Pavilion. As the actors took a bow, a full rainbow decorated the sky symbolizing a job well done. (Pics Continued on Page 2)

The Sounds of Cypress Band, formerly known as the Cy-Fair Community Band, is producing beautiful sounds, having fun as a group, and seeking new members who just love to play music. So dust off your musical instrument and come out for practice on Tuesday nights at 7 p.m. at the Lone Star College College-CyFair campus in the Fine Arts Building. The Cy-Fair Community Band was initiated about three years ago, with approximately five or six musicians coming together to explore their common interest in music and their enjoyment of playing together. They have grown to 33 members who just love to play music and share their talents for the enjoyment they get from playing. They have evolved into

an accomplished group of band members and have recently changed their name to Sounds of Cypress. DeeDee Flores is director of group. By day she is a band director at Plummer Middle School. Her ability has led the group to develop polished performances which they are anxious to share. This accomplished group is ready to perform for group events.
