Please join us as CyFair ALL presents another Focus Day, The Dementia Journey. It has been a few years since we had a Focus Day where we invite subject-matter experts to talk about a specific topic for our members. Dr. Peggy Presnell, previous chairman, and I have put together a program to provide information to our ALL members and help start the conversation on how to deal will Dementia and Alzheimer's. -- Cheryl LeJune

Open House - Important Information

There are several important changes to our Fall 2018 Open House on Friday, August 17 at 10am.

1. Parking stickers are no longer required on any LSC campus for students and visitors. Do not park in designated staff/faculty parking or, at North Harris, in ALL designated parking unless you have an ALL parking sticker. LSC-CyFair will not be giving out any student, including ALL, parking stickers.

2. Still no definitive plan on what to do with our expiring student IDs. The problem is that the ID cards are both a library card as well as a student ID. Will keep you informed. New members will get an ID as usual.

3. Payment Change - For those of you signing up for craft classes and/or bus trips, payments for both will be made to "CyFair ALL" by check or by cash. Payments for craft classes and bus trips can be made by same check. Payment table will be outside the conference room in the Foyer where the bus payments have always been. You will not be paying the college, Lone Star College, this semester for craft classes along with your membership fee. Pay only $20 membership fee when you drop off your registration form at the Open House.

Come enjoy the Open House. Hope to see you there. We will have some nice door prizes, too!

LSC-CyFair Summer Theater - Awesome Allie


Awesome Allie is the story of Allie, just a normal kid who is... headed into outer space! With he help of her trusty talking dog Captain Chaos and Rover the Dancing Robot from Mars, Allie's on a mission across the solar system to save Earth, and maybe learn some things about science along the way. But she'd better be home in time for dinner! Grab your space suit and get ready for an adventure that's out of this world?

You can buy tickets and see schedule here.

Noises Off - Unity Theater, Brehnam TX


Joshua Estrada, our CyFair Fine Arts Coordinator, invites our ALL members to see the play, Noises Off  at the Unity Theater in Brenham. Joshua works at the theater as well as his wife, who is in this play. The play runs from June 14-July 1 (dark Mon-Wed). 

Winner of the Laurence Olivier Award for Best New Comedy and Tony nominated for Best Play, this is an uproarious depiction of what goes on (and what goes wrong) backstage during a theatrical performance. The play chronicles the rocky final dress rehearsal and subsequent disastrous performances of a farce called Nothing On. As the cast and crew of a third-rate touring company attempt to negotiate the farcical demands of the play-within-the-play — fast entrances and exits, cases of mistaken identity, clothing quickly doffed and donned — a hilarious parade of madcap backstage mishaps threatens to derail the proceedings altogether. 

If you are looking for something to do this summer, take a drive out to Brehnam for the show or make a weekend out of it in beautiful Washington County.
