Ms. Larson will share creative development of your comic ideas, the
artistic mechanical individual drawing process and style. Character
development and dialog along with an introduction to the business of
writing and drawing a daily and Sunday cartoon will be covered.
Drawing materials will be provided and kept by the participants.
Aspiring cartoonists must bring their own imaginations! Join the
group on Monday, June 11, through Wednesday, June 13, from 9 a.m. to
11 a.m. in the craft room. The class is for fourth grade and up, and
the cost is $45 for district residents. The Nathan Turner
Memorial Fishing Clinic and Derby will be held again this
summer. Nathan Turner, a former Lincoln City Council member, was an
avid fisherman and outdoorsman. He grew up attending the park
district’s fishing derby and cared deeply about passing his love of
fishing and the outdoors on to other children. His family wanted to
support the clinic and derby to keep his memory alive. He is
survived by his wife, Sarah; their son, Benjamin; his parents, Dan
and Nancy; and sisters Janell and Nanette; along with many other
loving family members.
The free fishing derby is hosted by the Hickory Lane
Campground near Atlanta. In the past, the pond has been stocked just
days before the event. Prizes will be awarded in several different
categories in this competitive, but fun event. The Lincoln Police
Department D.A.R.E. program will contribute to the expenses of the
fishing derby. Police Chief Ken Greenslate will be on hand cooking
hot dogs and providing sodas to the fishermen and their families.
Parental approval is a must, and parents are encouraged to attend.
Join the group at Hickory Lane on Saturday, June 9, from 9 a.m. to
noon.
