SUMMARY:Phantom Ranch: A Brief History & Stories of Life at the Bottom of the Grand Canyon
DESCRIPTION:Join Warren Tracy\, former Manager for Phantom Ranch (1989-2000)\, to learn not only a bit about the history and construction of Mary Colter’s guest ranch at the Bottom of the Grand Canyon but also learn a bit about “the road less traveled”\, an unconventional life spent at the one of the most beautiful and intriguing places on the planet. It’s a glimpse “behind the infamous swinging door” of the Phantom Ranch Lodge and an insight beyond the “normal visit”\, including fires\, floods and other firsts. This presentation will run approximately 90 minutes and include a slide show of some most unique photos of life at the bottom. Q and A to follow. Suggested $10 donation.

SUMMARY:Shakespeare in the Pines: A midsummer Nights Dream
DESCRIPTION:A Midsummer Night’s Dream\, by William Shakespeare  \nTwo worlds will collide on a single summer night…\nA midsummer wedding is about to take place in the seemingly well-ordered township of Athens\, while a bitter feud is stirring in the surrounding forest. An amateur play rehearsal\, a desperate elopement\, and a jealous pursuit draw the mortal townsfolk away from the safety of their civilization and into the realm where the fairies dwell. \nWhen fairies and mortals mix can mayhem be far behind? \nThe Highlands Center for Natural History and Laark Productions present the 13th annual Shakespeare in the Pines production of A Midsummer Night’s Dream\, a playful romp from the world of men through the forest of dreams and back again. \nCatered by El Gato Azul  \nWine provided by Page Spring Cellars  \nDoors Open at 5:45PM  \nPerformance starts 6:50PM
