Event Details

“Trails for Dale” was organized by Brecka, Tiffany, Shanna, and Maddie Putnam to celebrate and honor their dad, Dale Putnam, who was diagnosed with early-onset Alzheimer’s disease. There is no cure for him, or anyone fighting Alzheimer’s today. It is estimated that 10 million people are diagnosed daily. We simply don’t have the infrastructure to take care of that many people, so we have to find a cure.

“Trails for Dale” is a 24-hour biking event to be held June 24 to raise funds for research to take down Alzheimer’s; all proceeds will go to the Alzheimer’s Association. Bikers should sign up for one hour (or more) shifts starting at 12:00 AM (that’s midnight Friday night)–the goal is to have at least one person riding all day. At the end the day, all adult participants are invited to join for a group lap and after party.

Groups are encouraged – sign your family, team, or club up for an hour or two or three, or consider a corporate hour!

Adults are encouraged to raise at least $100 or couples to raise $75 per person, and kids to raise at least $10. There will be a dedicated kids’ hour during the day, as well as food and fun at event headquarters.

For more information, e-mail trailsfordale@gmail.com or visit http://trailsfordale.absurdudeez.com/.

Event Details

I often have people ask me why my photo, of the same thing in the same spot, looks better than theirs. The answer is that I know how to use my manual controls.

$25 registration is required at: https://www.meetup.com/Decorah-Photography-Workshops/events/240760016/

When your camera is in AUTO mode, you capture what the camera thinks looks good. Here’s a news flash, the camera isn’t always right. However, when you shoot in MANUAL mode, you are finally able to capture what YOU think looks good. It puts the creative control in your hands.

This class is part of a 4 Stage process. Each stage takes you further into mastering your camera. Some stages can apply to multiple classes, so keep an eye out.

• Stage 1 – Manual controls

• Stage 2 – Practical application and lighting

• Stage 3 – Photo organization/processing

• Stage 4 – Advanced techniques

Join me at my home studio for a workshop on switching your digital camera off of AUTO and learning to control settings such as ISO, Shutter Speed, and Aperture, for complete control over your photos.

You’ll gain an understanding of why auto mode doesn’t always capture what you want. We’ll learn how shutter speed affects action shots, how aperture affects depth-of-field, and how both of those settings work with ISO to control your exposure.

This class requires a camera with a MANUAL mode and control of Shutter Speed, Aperture, and ISO. Digital dSLR or Compact Mirrorless camera is recommended. Message me with camera questions.

———————————————————————

** Minimum of Three (3) students registered 48 hours prior to class. If not, class will be cancelled and refunded. So invite a guest!

If you are unable to pay with credit card, please contact me: nick@nickchillphotography.com

*** There will be cats in the building, so caution for anyone with cat allergies.

Event Details

New Minowa Players proudly presents their 2017 Summer Musical Monty Python’s “Spamalot” with book and lyrics by Eric Idle and music by John Du Prez and Eric Idle, produced through special arrangement with Theatrical Rights Worldwide.

A new musical lovingly ripped off from the film “Monty Python and the Holy Grail,” “Spamalot” loosely recounts the story of King Arthur and his Knights of the Round Table, but quickly diverts from traditional tellings of the tale.

Performances are June 23 and 24 at 7:30 p.m. and June 25 at 2 p.m., at the Decorah High School Auditorium.

Seats will go quickly for this fast-paced musical comedy and are available for purchase online at newminowaplayers.org or at the DHS Box Office the week of the show, June 19 – 22, 4 to 7 p.m. and two hours before each performance.

Tickets are $10 for adults and $5 for 12 and under.

Sponsors for Monty Python’s “Spamalot” are Decorah Bank & Trust, Family Table Restaurant, Gallery of Tops, Pizza Ranch, RocketDog Books, Rubaiyat Restaurant, Seed Savers Exchange, and Singing Hammers Construction.
