FIG Theatre Company

They produce a fall and spring production as well as a children's theatre production each spring. Anyone interested in acting or in production is invited to participate.

Foyer Groups - group's history
Foyer Groups offer a delightful way to meet others, or to renew friendships in a relaxed, fun and informal way. The groups are made up of 8 to 10 adults, both married and single, who meet once a month for conversation and dining together. Each month one couple, or single or group of singles becomes the "host" and decides on menu and format for their month. It is usually a dinner at home, but could be at a restaurant, or even a picnic in the park. Being creative is part of the fun. Every six months, the groups are shuffled and reformed to meet new members and renew more friendships. View some photos.
