<p>The Missoula Children's Theatre and Vaughn Elementary School teamed up recently to present the musical production of "Jack and the Beanstalk."</p>
<p>MCT is the nation's largest children's touring theatre and has been touring nation wide for the past 40 years. The company brought out all the stops at Vaughn, beginning with auditions earlier this week. Students from all grades lined the school gymnasium to show off their acting skills to the MCT staff. </p>
<p>Vaughn students were excited for the opportunity to showcase their acting skills and most added a little bravado to their lines. </p>
<p>"Jack and the Beanstalk" will go live Friday, April 12 at 6 p.m. and April 13 at 2 p.m.</p>

<p>For many people, a Christmas tree in their home is what represents the Christmas season.</p>
<p>For the second consecutive year, Shield M Ranch Christmas Tree Farm has donated their remaining Christmas trees to Aurora families. Shield M Ranch is a family owned Ranch that has been providing Colorado raised Christmas Trees for families for over 80 years. Every year they have trees left over and they wanted to make sure that families who needed them could get access to them. Each year there have been nearly 50 trees ranging in sizes that needed homes.</p>
<p>Thanks to the time and effort of many APS family liaisons and volunteers, the trees have been brought down from the mountains to our community. The amazing family liaisons worked with their schools and families to get trees to the families who really needed them. This year a special thanks goes out to Minnie Pescador and her volunteers, including Carmen Cavazos and Rose and Justin Norton for taking a Sunday to drive to the mountains and bring the tress down so our families could have access. We are excited to continue this partnership for many years to come.</p>]]></content:encoded>
