Keith Munslow - Comedian/Storyteller

Keith Munslow will be here to entertain us on Tuesday, July 24th at 1:30 pm!

What does Keith Munslow do? A little of everything.

Join us for an hour of tremendous entertainment and lots of laughs. This show is geared to kids 6+. Registration is open. 

Norman Ng Magic!

Norman is known for bringing fresh energy to his shows. He views his show as a conversation with the audience rather than a performance for them. He gets the audience to react in ways they never throught they could. Swinging and smashing stuff, he makes hundreds of people suspend their belief with every show. You will laugh, scream and freak out!

Show date is Wednesday, July 18 at 1:30 p.m. - All ages are welcome.

Online registration begins July 6th.
