The Community Agriculture Alliance is celebrating 25 years and a new location all day today, at 35 11th Street in Steamboat Springs. The new name is Yampa Valley Foods. Stop by anytime today for free samples, and the 25th anniversary celebration starts at 5:30 p.m. tonight.
The fall play at Steamboat Springs High School is The Phantom Tollbooth, based on the children’s book by Norton Juster. The show centers around a boy named Milo and his adventure through the tollbooth. There is also Tock, the watchdog, played by senior Macy Pyles.
“People should come out to the play because this is one of our first plays we’ve done that’s really good for kids as well as adults. It’s got some pretty good humor in it. It reminds me a lot of kind of the Alice in Wonderland story, but kid version. It’s really fun.”
It is a comedy that is family-friendly and appropriate for all ages.
Performances start at 6:30 p.m. on Thursday, Friday, and Saturday, Oct. 24-26, with a kids matinee at 3 p.m. on that Saturday. Tickets are available from the online box office through SteamboatSchools.net
Many pictures of the dress rehearsal are on the Steamboat Radio Facebook page.

Disney’s Beauty and the Beast is on stage at Steamboat Springs Middle School starting today.
“My name is Taylor Jenkins. I play Belle. One amazing thing about this show is the community that it is all involved in. We have worked together so well. My name is Tyler Sloan. I play The Beast. This is really good show because everyone is really involved. We have a lot of ensemble which is a good thing because without ensemble, you cannot have a play.”
Shows are at 6:30 p.m. Thursday and Friday and noon on Saturday. Tickets are free but they must be reserved through the Steamboat Springs Middle School office and can be picked up at the middle school in advance.
Kendra Lovins is the Director of the play with Jim Knapp as the Music Director.
