Mr Gaul says: The Mr T Pageant is a senior fundraiser that we have been doing for 6 years. It simulates the Miss Lewis County Pageant in structure, but is lighthearted, fun, comical and meant to make people laugh. I guess it is a spoof on beauty pageants using guys. This year we have 7 entrants who will showcase beachwear, personality wear, a “talent” then answer on stage questions as well. As a whole, they will perform two dance routines. Female senior hostesses and choreographers will help with this production. Mr Malunat and I will MC the event 7 p.m. March 10 at Toledo High School.
Pat’s review: Julie Zander's presentation Monday at the library was interesting. She presented a very simple way for people to start writing their life stories. We did three or four exercises to give us the nudge to begin writing.
