The Normal Heart, written by Larry Kramer, centers on Ned Weeks, a gay writer who finds himself at the forefront of the fight against AIDS at the time when the disease was so terrifyingly new, it didn’t even have a name.

Though the subject matter is weighty, it has moments that range from laugh-out-loud funny to utterly heartbreaking. Adult Content.

In this 1964 romantic comedy/adventure, Cary Grant stars as Father Goose who is a beach bum in the South Seas during World War II.  He is persuaded to help spy on planes passing over his island and gets more than he bargained for as schoolteacher Catherine Frena (played by Leslie Caron) arrives on the run from the Japanese with her pupils in tow! The film won an Oscar for Best Writing, Story and Screenplay. Tickets are just $5 and available at Harbor Drug, City Drug, at the door, or online at Brown Paper Tickets.

The eleventh hour of the eleventh day of the eleventh month marked the signing of the armistice to end the Great War, or what would later be known as WWI, in 1918. One year later, President Wilson declared the day Armistice Day, and soldiers of the war were celebrated-those who had survived marched in hometown parades and were honored with speeches by local and national politicians. In 1938, Armistice Day was voted a national holiday, and then in 1971 became Veterans Day, honoring veterans of all wars, under President Nixon.

Elma VFW Bill Mann Post 1948 and Auxiliary invites you to share in a time to remember our friends who’ve served and lost their lives and a day to thank current and former military service members for their service.  Elma Veterans Day Celebration begins on November 11 with a Memorial Ceremony at 11:00 a.m.  Ceremony is at the Elma Veteran’s Memorial park, located on Main Street (East side of the viaduct).

The Grand Parade is at 1:00 p.m. on Main Street in downtown Elma.  Covered seating and an announcer can be located on Third and Main Street at the Elma Visitors Station.  Three prizes for parade entries are being offered: Most Patriotic Entry $100; Judges Choice $50; and Most Creative $25. For entry information contact Barb Green 360-482-3365 or email greenelma@comcast.net.

Immediately following the parade join us for a Veterans Day Luncheon at the Elma Grange, hosted by VFW Post 1948 and Auxiliary at Elma Grange, 4th and Waldrip Street.  Lunch is a donation of $5 or free to parade participants.  Enjoy looking at the Veterans Honor Quilt Display at the Grange during lunch.

This FREE college and career, STEM-based event is open to high school students, their parents, and their educators in Thurston, Lewis, Mason, Pacific and Grays Harbor Counties.

The Global Entrepreneurship Week: Business Kickoff Event will offer aspiring entrepreneurs free information, resources, support, and inspiration needed to successfully start a business. Participants will receive a specialized form that will assist in organizing the information available at this event. This form will keep track of who they’ve spoken to, services that are useful to them specifically, and how to get in contact with those resources at a future date.
After an hour or so of informational browsing, there will be a brief speech offered by a local entrepreneur sharing some of the hardships and successes they’ve experienced while starting and developing their business.

After that will be additional time to gather information, and finishing the evening off with a free drawing for a prize basket.

The public is invited to “Changing Shorelines” – a science forum – on Tuesday November 17th to learn about coastal hazards in Grays Harbor and Pacific counties. Top scientists will present recent studies about coastal erosion, flooding, and sea-level rise, and will bring in specific discussion of what this means for coastal Washington. This free and educational event will allow participants to interact with scientists and the science, and leave with a better understanding about coastlines. Light dinner will be provided. Event is free. Location is the Schermer Building, room 4134 at Grays Harbor Community College, 6-8 pm.
