Sharnee Prescott has been with Creative Chaos for years, but until now has shied away from the spot- light. “Three years I’ve been working backstage,” said Prescott. “I’m usually pret- ty reserved and quiet … but I decided to give it a try.” Meanwhile, the 12-mem- ber cast of Creative Chaos is continuing to prepare for its first Christmas play, set to run Dec. 13, 14 and 15.

The Village Green invites fami- lies to experience the magic of the vious shows, but Dowell said the group is up to the challenge. “I see so much growth in them. It’s amazing,” she said. “Watching the old- er seniors take in the new ones and help them out is pretty awesome.” Dowell said the Christ- mas-themed play will raise the bar for the group and what the community might holidays at its exclusive VIP Pre- view Party on Saturday, Nov. 23. The event will be from 6 to 8 p.m., with a German-style dinner, gluhwein, live music and Christ- mas lights. Pets are welcome as well.

As none of the Creative Chaos members drive, Dowell is soliciting dona- tions of time or money to aid with transportation. “Some of them live far out and I would hate for someone to miss out due to transportation,” said Dowell. “My husband and I have been taxis for years but would greatly appreci- ate more help.” For more information on volunteering or spon- soring, contact Carmen Dowell at 541-285-5475 or visit online at creativecha- oscg.org. 15% OFF Any service with coupon Schedule your appointment Today!
