You guys can't get enough of the Fair Weather Trading Co tallow lotions!
Here's the thing - we've been hoarding a bunch of jars that have gotten a little overfilled or too warm and leaked juuuuust enough to muck up the labels. They're totally fine and usable, and the same ol' tallow you love, just with a (we say this with love) ugly label.
Don't care about the label? Amazing. They're all marked at 10% off! We have just a few, and they won't last long!

⭐️ Summer Theater Camp presents WORKING, A Musical ⭐️

Registration for WORKING - A Musical, the young adult Summer Theater Camp, opens Thursday, May 14th, at 4PM.

This camp is for anyone entering 9th grade next year through age 21. The cast will be smaller in size than our youth theater camp, and everyone will have a part in this show - there is no ensemble.

Find all the details through the link, and set your alarms to register tomorrow! Theater camps always fill up quickly!

The Elk County Council on the Arts is proud to present the Summer Theater Camp performance of WORKING, A Musical , directed by Mr. Matthew Frank, on Friday, June 26. Attend the Performance Friday, June 26 at 7PM in the St. Marys Area High School Carpin Auditorium. School doors will open at 6:00P

There are about 7 spots left for Summer Theater Camp presents Seussical, JR.!

🤩 Summer Theater Camp registration for Seussical, JR opens FRIDAY, May 8 at NOON!

Our Summer Theater Camp program has rapidly grown in popularity over the last few years. While we’ve been excited by the increasing participation, it’s not without challenges. To ensure each student has the best possible camp experience, we have decided to expand Summer Theater Camp into two age groups.

⭐️ The first camp, performing Seussical, JR, will be for students entering grades 3rd - 10th in the fall of 2026.
⭐️ The second camp, performing Working, the Musical, will be for students entering grades 9th - age 21. Registration details coming as soon as details are finalized! (tentatively June 22-26 at RHS)

There is overlap for the upcoming 9th and 10th graders, so they can choose to attend one or both camps, depending on their interest in each show and their familiarity and comfort level with each age group.
