COTTAGE GROVE SENTINEL | WEDNESDAY, NOVEMBER 13, 2019 | 3A Community News Creative Chaos dance card full for 2020 Creative Chaos is cur- rently rehearsing for an original Christmas play, which opens Dec. 13, with additional perfor- mances on Dec. 14 and 15. Tickets are on sale now, with tickets only available for Saturday’s (Dec. 14) performance. Also, Creative Chaos will be participating in a give-back project, work- ing with Joyce Settlemey- er at the Tree of Joy and accepting unwrapped toys, warm hats and gloves at the door of all three performances. In addition, Creative Chaos has been working with Opal and recent- ly announced it will be holding an event every month starting in Feb- ruary with a Sweethearts dance on Feb. 7, from 5 to 7 p.m. “Recently, I took some Special Olympic athletes to Eugene’s Halloween Costume Party and we had so much fun danc- ing and socializing I just knew that we needed to do something like this on a local level,” said Cre- ative Chaos founder Car- men Dowell. “A full cal- endar for 2020 has been made and we have danc- es, karaoke, craft nights and game nights.” Costs will be kept to under $5 for each event and go directly back into supplies for the next event. “This is an all-volun- teer program, so we ap- preciate any local busi- nesses that would like to sponsor an event,” said Dowell. “I would love to get help with taxi money so everyone can attend. None of our athletes or actors drive.” To learn more about the program, upcoming events or to sponsor an event, contact Dowell at 542-285-5475. “You don’t have to be a Special Olympic Athlete or a Creative Chaos Actor to attend these events,” Dowell said. “Anyone with a disability or as we like to say ‘Different-abil- ity’ is welcome to attend.” Caregiver Network to meet in December On Monday, Dec. 2, from 11 a.m. to 1 p.m., Fire Chief Solesbee of South Lane Fire & Rescue will speak on the topic of smoke detectors, home evacuations, the CERT program and other emer- gency-related topics The meeting, which will be held at 1200 E. Quincy Ave., will include a potluck lunch. For more information, call Shirley at 541-232- 0966.
