Flatwater Theater Company Returns to The Swan (AKA, The Stables)
Flatwater once again performed its William Shakespeare productions in the beautifully restored Swan Theater. This unique open air setting was a perfect venue for the timeless works of Shakespeare, directed by masterful Bob Hall. "As You Like It" opened June 4-7. This was the beginning of Flatwater's "Free in the Parks" tour, which also performed at various park locations throughout Lincoln for the following three weekends. The final two shows were back at The Swan June 27-28. Flatwater Shakespeare's fall production, Hamlet, opened September 17 and ran at The Swan Theater for three weekends.

Community Crops Annual Event
Because of the flooding in Lincoln this last week Wyuka Stables was the chosen site of the Community Crops Annual plant sale- fund raiser Saturday May 9th. It was a privilege to be able to have the space needed to help out an organization that helps our community in many ways. Several hundred people visited Wyuka Stables and purchased native Nebraska plants to grow in their summer gardens. Please visit communitycrops.org for more information about this organization.
Belmont School 5th Grade Class visits Wyuka.
Wednesday, May 6th, 120 5th grade students from Belmont School visited Wyuka. This has been an ongoing outing for many years funded by the Wyuka Foundation and this is the first time that the Stables was used for the event because the weather made it impossible to complete the afternoon event outside. Mary Pro delivered her historic presentation to the students as they it watched on the 80" TV. The students also heard and watched Natural Resource District representative McKenzie Berry give her wet land presentation and show.
