| OHCC LIVING | NOVEMBER 2024 |27 OHSPA The OHSPA Board is excited that our final show for our 2024 season, Four By Four, SOLD OUT in three days! For those of you who would still like to see the show on Nov. 2, a wait list is available at the Front Desk so that any residents who purchased tickets, but their plans may have changed, may sell to you. The Board is even more excited about kicking off our 2025 season on March 2 with the world-famous, The Texas Tenors! The Texas Tenors are the most successful music group and third highest selling artist in the history of America's Got Talent, with five albums, two PBS Specials, four DVDs, multiple singles and three Emmy Awards. On May 17, 2025, OHSPA will proudly present Jim Curry's "A Tribute To The Music of John Denver." We hope to announce our November show in the near future. We believe that The Texas Tenors will sell out too. We have a suggestion. If you would like to avoid getting up early on the morning that ticket sales begin, consider becoming one of our wonderful Star Donors in 2025. For a donation of $500 per person per year, a resident can choose from the best seats in the house before show tickets go on sale. This seat will be reserved for all three 2025 OHSPA shows. You may purchase as many Star Donor memberships as wanted. For each membership, there is a tax deduction of $380. Also, all Star Donors are invited to a Pre-Show Champagne Reception. All Show Ticket(s) and Champagne Reception ticket(s) will be mailed directly to Star Donors prior to when the tickets go on sale for each show. So, sleep in and get ready to be entertained! OHCC, PLEASE DON'T MISS any of these professionally produced musical shows; less than two miles from your home; sitting no more than 75 feet from the stage; free parking, and all at a very low cost! We really hope to see you at all or any of our shows! Your OHSPA Board. Written by Donna Wessel-Graham and approved by the OHSPA Board It's November, the heart of autumn, and we're getting ready to celebrate one of our most unique and iconic holidays; Thanksgiving! It's a wonderful time for families. It's one of the busiest travel days of the year with people coming together to enjoy great food, and each other. And it's one of the most cherished times to send cards, especially when it's not possible to be together. Whether it be getting paper Turkeys ready for the kids to decorate, or creating beautiful autumn scenes for cards to send, Thanksgiving is a time that really lends itself to crafting, remembering past gatherings and above all, being grateful for all that we have. November is also a time for saluting our veterans and honoring their service to our country. A great way to do this is to recognize the veterans in our own community, by attending the November 11th event in Abravanel Hall this month. Some may even want to send cards to the Veterans Club to be distributed to those veterans who aren't able to attend the event. We really have a great group of crafters in our midst and try to celebrate them when we can! Happy Birthday to our November babies celebrating a new number this year. Have a fabulous celebration all month-long my friends! Sharon Doyle, Lissa Glenn, Vicki Greene, Betty Ruehle, Ellin Whitson, best wishes for an awesome birthday! As always, I take this opportunity to tell you about some other dates this month when a card would be the perfect offering to someone special. Please go to the following link to get an idea of other holidays and events being celebrated in the month of November. November Holidays, Observances 2024: Daily, Weekly, Monthly - Parade. From the most fanciful, silly and odd observances (Blaze Day, Old Socks Day, World Toilet Day) to the most laudable, honorable and spiritual observances, (Diabetes awareness, Marine Corps Birthday, All Saints Day) there's something interesting every day of the month! Until next month, fellow papercrafters, we hope you have a wonderful Thanksgiving and keep on crafting. Respectfully submitted by Debbie Cea Papercrafting Club
