Delone Catholic Theatre Director Gabi Cranga ‘17 chose Our Town for this year’s fall play with greater intention than meets the eye. In the wake of divisive national politics and devastating natural disasters, Cranga thought that the classic play might unite neighbors. “Hopefully, with Delone being in McSherrystown, we can relate to being in a small town. It reminds us of what America used to be like. It talks about people and not so much about technology. The characters take pride in their little town, and that is something we need to be reminded of, especially right now.”
The Arts at Delone Catholic looks forward to welcoming an audience of neighbors and friends from the local community to experience Our Town, onstage in the Delone Gymnasium on Nov. 22 and 23 at 7 p.m. and Nov. 24 at 2 p.m.
On Sunday, Oct. 20, three Delone Catholic honor societies held a joint induction ceremony in the cafeteria for new members. Lori Shaeffer ’15, an architectural designer and planner who works for the Smithsonian Institution’s Office of Planning, Design, and Construction, gave the keynote address.
The National English Honor Society (NEHS) inducted 15 new members. Mu Alpha Theta, the National Mathematics Honor Society inducted 29 new members. The Venerable St. Bede Chapter of Rho Kappa, the National Social Studies Honor Society, inducted 18 new members.
