I "manned" the front entrance of the auditorium- 99% of the people
came in through entrance from the school building

Always colorful with US Flags flying in front of the auditorium 





























Welcome area inside front door of the school

We attended the "welcome picnic" in the commons area

Guy brought his soap bubble gizmo to the outdoor concert on the square last night

UNO Jazz Ensemble - University of Nebraska at Omaha - performed free
concert on the corner of the town square at 8:00 pm last night.

It drew a pretty good crowd.

Finished after dark - but with couple spot lights.

Should mention that couple days ago (June 6th) was 100th anniversary of my mom's birthday.

Heading back to the school for full day of helping take tickets, seating people needing help, answering what questions we can.

Later, Lynn
