This competition can potentially send students on to Des Moines for the Iowa State Competition and one to Sioux Falls for the S.D. State Competition\, both held in March.  Each winner at the state level receives $200 and an all-expense paid trip with an adult chaperone to Washington DC to compete for the National Championship in May. The State winning school receives a $500 stipend for the purchase of poetry books.  The first runner up in each state receives $100 plus $200 for his or her school library. \nThe National Poetry Out Loud first place winner directly receives $20\,000\, the second place receives $10\,000 directly\, and third place receives $5\,000. The fourth through ninth place national winners each receive $1000.  All nine schools receive $500 for the purchase of poetry books for their libraries. A total of $50\,000 in awards and school stipends is awarded annually at the National Finals. Visit poetryoutloud.org for more information

SUMMARY:A "Merry TUBACHRISTMAS" Concert
DESCRIPTION:On Saturday\, December 7\, the Betty Strong Encounter Center will host “Merry TUBACHRISTMAS\,” a concert featuring Siouxland area tuba and euphonium players\, at 12:00 p.m. Admission is free. \nThe audience will hear traditional Christmas carols arranged by composer Alec Wilder who died on Christmas Eve 1980. In addition to composing music for the tuba and euphonium\, Wilder was a loyal supporter of the efforts to improve the literature and public image of these instruments. \nAt the first TubaChristmas in 1973\, around 300 musicians showed up at the ice-skating rink at Rockefeller Plaza in New York City\, bearing their giant brass instruments. A massive\, all-tuba holiday concert was the brainchild of Harvey Phillips\, a tuba player and enthusiast who would go on to teach in the music school at Indiana University and start similar tuba-centric traditions such as “Octubafest.” \nTubaChristmas concerts have since popped up in practically every state. You can now enjoy the holiday stylings of amateur tuba ensembles in 296 U.S. communities\, from Anchorage\, Alaska to Hilo\, Hawaii. In 2018\, overachievers in Kansas City set a Guinness World Record.

SUMMARY:“Thomas Jefferson\, Our Third President”
DESCRIPTION:Award-winning author and historian Don Hickey will deliver an illustrated lecture on Jefferson at the Betty Strong Encounter Center at 2:00 PM on October 27\, 2024.  Admission is free with a reception to follow. \nThomas Jefferson\, a Renaissance man with broad interests and a powerful intellect\, was known as the apostle of freedom because he wrote the Declaration of Independence\, was co-founder (with James Madison) of the Democratic party and promoted “an empire for liberty” with the Louisiana purchase.  But he also supported slavery\, led the campaign to dispossess the Indians in the Old Northwest\, and favored the ruthless use of government power in support of the disastrous 15-month embargo that marred his second term as president.  This illustrated presentation will examine the highlights of Jefferson’s life and service and seek to reach a balanced assessment of his record as an American statesman. \nHickey holds a PhD from the University of Illinois and is a specialist in early American history and American military history. He is best known for his books\, The War of 1812: A Forgotten Conflict (University of Illinois Press) and Nebraska Moments: Glimpses of Nebraska’s Past (University of Nebraska Press). His latest book\, Tecumseh’s War: The Epic Conflict for the Heart of America\, (Westholme Publishing) was published in 2023.

SUMMARY:Cattle Trails and Songs of the West
DESCRIPTION:On August 4 at 2:00 PM Joan Wells and Kris Simon will bring to the Betty Strong Encounter Center an entertaining living history performance about the Great Western Cattle Trail and the origin of western music through their “Cattle Trails and Songs of The West.” \nThe duo sings the songs of the early day cowboys. In 1874 cattle drives brought hundreds of thousands of cattle to Nebraska by way of the “Great Western Cattle Trail.”  Herds were gathered near San Antonio\, Texas and driven up to a rail head in Ogallala\, Nebraska.  There\, many of them were loaded onto trains and taken east to Chicago and St. Louis.  During these four-month drives\, cowboys would sing to the cattle to calm them and prevent stampedes. \nThey will talk about how the silver screen cowboys popularized many western songs such as The Streets Of Laredo\, Home On The Range\, Sioux City Sue\, Back In The Saddle Again\, Tumbling Tumbleweeds\, Ride Em’ Cowboy\, Cowtown\, and San Antonio Rose. Western theme music continues to be written and sung today.  Some of the present western bands influenced by the cowboy songs include Riders In The Sky\, Sons Of The Pioneers\, Texas Playboys\, Asleep At the Wheel\, and the Texas Trail Hands.
