October 13, 2013: 2pm - LOWRY THEATRE OUTING!
Join us on Sunday afternoon, Oct. 13, for a 2 pm performance of the delightful From Door to Door by James Sherman playing at the Pluss Theatre (Jewish Comm. Center) at 350 S. Dahlia. Lowry residents will get a $20 ticket for this generational play both hilarious and deeply moving. Theatre Or, co-founded by Lowry’s own Diane Gilboa, puts on two plays a year going beyond the traditional community fare. Works are intriguing plus delightful. This Sunday’s performance will include the playwright, James Sherman, for a talk back. Come support theatre and our local producer. Plenty of free parking!  No reservations needed. Gather about 1:45 and look for Sharon Berthrong and other Lowry theatre goers.

Public Comments on boundaries for Lowry Elementary School building addition and increased enrollment
Location:  900 Grant Street ,  Denver, Co 80203  (please independently confirm this if you plan to go)
Board of Education will vote on the Staff Recommendations, which are:
1.      Provide a permanent, attractive expansion to Lowry Elementary School to accommodate additional students
2.      Expand Lowry’s boundary to include the Buckley Annex development and small portions of the Denver Green School boundary north of Alameda. (We expect the total increase to Lowry’s enrollment to be less than 100 students, and this increase would happen over time.  The boundary change would not affect any students currently enrolled in the Denver Green School.)
 
October 22nd  7-8:30p 
LOWRY SPEAKER SERIES - at Eisenhower Chapel

Mark your calendars and bring your kids/grandkids and friends. On Tuesday October 22 from 7-8:30 the Lowry Speaker Series, in the Eisenhower Chapel 293 Roslyn Street in Lowry, will have a very special father talking about his daughter. She is the “winningest” woman swimmer in the world, is 18 years old and has an infectious smile and charismatic personality. A pool in Lowry has served as a practice spot for her. Richard (Dick) Franklin will be doing a presentation simply called “Missy”. Admission is free and no reservations are necessary.
