| Apr 27 - May 6 A Fox on the Fairway by Ken Ludwig |
| A tribute from Ken Ludwig (Lend Me A Tenor, Moon Over Buffalo) to the great English farces of the 1930s and 1940s, A Fox On the Fairway takes audiences on a hilarious romp, which pulls the rug out from underneath the stuffy denizens of a private country club. Filled with mistaken identities, slamming doors, and over-the-top romantic shenanigans, it's a furiously paced comedy that recalls the Marx Brothers' classics. A charmingly madcap adventure about love, life, and man's eternal love affair with...golf. Tickets available at: the Kalispell Grand Hotel, the Pocketstone Cafe, & Bigfork Drug... or at the door. Or call 406-518-1170 CAUTION: MATURE CONTENT. Not recommended for children under 12. |

| May 16 Flathead Poetry Slam |
| The Flathead Spoken Word Community invites you to a monthly Poetry Slam, preceded by an Open Mic Night. The open mic is open to anyone who would like to read a piece they wrote or by an author they admire. The slam is the competitive portion of the night. Slam poets bring 3 poems they wrote themselves, each 3 minutes or less. Judges rate their poems and audience members are well engaged. There is a prize for first place! This is a safe space for folks to share their work. There is no filter on poems (and therefore may not appropriate for young children), however we ask you express yourself authentically in your poetry and with respect and kindness throughout the evening. We look forward to continuing to cultivate a vibrant, inclusive and connected community with you. Email fhpoetryslam@gmail.com to sign up to compete! (or show up around 7:15pm) |

Register at: https://blueprintforbusinesssucess.eventbrite.com Employers have a duty to provide a secure and safe workplace. The potential for workplace violence exists across organizations of all sizes, in all industries and in all geographic locations. Active shooter incidents have seen a significant spike. According to the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI), there were 200 active shooter situations in the United States between 2000 and 2015, resulting in 578 people killed and 696 wounded. Organizations must communicate an awareness program to employees, supervisors and managers about a workplace violence prevention program and potential warning signs and risk factors. This training will help your organization: • Be aware of the warning signs of violence • Mentally prepare for “what if” situations • Understand company procedures about violent situations • Take all threats seriously Presenters: Deputy Corporal Travis W.
