Anyone who attended last year's Town and Country ex­ travaganza can attest to the fact that it was a fun-filled evening. Dates for this year's event are June 11-12 and June 18-19 and will be held again at Montini Primary center and St. Patrick's church hall on Washington street, McHenry. Chairmen expect to even top the mark made at the 1975 show, when over 3,000 persons enjoyed the entertainment. About 525 people from the community and from neigh­ boring communities are busily at work preparing and arranging all the details necessary to present nine rooms of entertainment, plus two restaurants, as well as the main production. The classrooms in Montini Primary center will be emptied of all schoolroom equipment and artisitically turned into imaginative miniature night clubs or restaurants representing the individual show themes. After the room is skillfully decorated, the en­ tertainment is supplied by enthusiastic performers who are perhaps friends or neigh­ bors, mingled with professional talent. The rooms include "Delta Queen" which will provide a romantic trip down the Mississippi with a show boat motif. Chairmen are Carol and Bob Wills. A front porch setting will bring a "folksie" flavor to "Our House", and will afford an opportunity to reminisce about the times people gathered with friends for song and dance. Ron Wagner and Ed Smith are hosting this room Then one can travel eastward for a "Touch of Broadway". This will give a look at the glamour of show business. Chairmen for this room are Pat and Gordon Rehberg. For the nostalgic there is the "Fabulous Fifties" which will include a take-off on some favorite celebrities from that era. Mary Ann Wiles is chairman. Back even further to the '20's is "Flapper Annie's", There will be fun and surprises in this speakeasy atmosphere. Annie Cuda is chairman. Kathy Porter is chairing "Cactus Corral" where the decor will transport one to the West. Country and western music can be enjoyed in this authentic setting. The visitor can count on real fun and congeniality when he stops by the "Irish Pub". Here he will find spirited singers, piano players, sing-a-longs and of course, the Irish jig. Hosts will be Pat and John Coughlin. Look for a good time in "Pot­ pourri", chaired by Bob Knapik. Those who remember the Andrew Sisters pantomime act from last year will be happy to know the same group will be appearing this year in the "Rainbow Garden". Since last year's show,they have been making frequent appearances in many towns. Don Howard and Len Bruce are chairmen. Lynn 4"Wember and Ron Wilson are co-chairmen of Pizza Plenty, where one can enjoy Italian food in a tastefully decorated room. If one wishes to dine outside, there is the restaurant in the tent, with Claire Miller in charge "Our Bicentennial Salute" is the main production, with Father Michael Tierney staging this spectacular. The cast of twenty-five will bring the viewer from 1776 up to today and will be presented several times each evening in the church hall. Ted Schweder is handling the chairmanship of Town and Country, with Joan Bauer, Kitty O'Neill and Bob Wasilowski as co-chairmen. A special performance is being added this year Wed­ nesday, June 16, to enable school children up through 18 years old to attend the show. Ticket information will be announced next week. 2. 3.
