Time
to dust off that poodle skirt, polish up your saddle shoes, and
break out the leather jacket . On Thursday, July 11 the River
City Country Opry will reclaim the stage at Mason City's Arlee
Theater for 50's night!
Lead by Stan Edwards, with musical talents from Ronda
Brown, Bob Watkins, Steve Harbin, Richard Stiltz, Mike Musgrove,
Marc Bubert, Bob Rowland, and Tom Durso, this all-star crew is sure
to bring a smile to your face and make your toe tap with the
beat....if not make you get up and dance!
This month's show is 50's/60's-themed, so guests are
encouraged to dress for the era and be ready to make good use of the
Arlee's dance floor. This week's show begins at 6:30pm, with doors
opening at 5:45. Concessions will be available, and tickets are $10
at the door (ages 12 and under are free).
Early arrivals in town are encouraged to patronize
any of the town's locally-owned eateries, including Subway, Mason
City IGA, Do Drop Inn Cafe, Kreiling's Dari-Belle, and Smokey's Bar
& Grill. It is also worth noting stores Sweet Creek & Co (128 S.
Tonica), Mason City Overstock Outlet (118 E. Elm), Junior's General
Store (153 E Chestnut), Sixteen&Vine (158 N. Tonica), The Hot Spot/
Elm Street Consignments (200 S. Main), and Reign & Bros Baby &
Toddler Clothing (128 S. Tonica) are all within a block or two of
the theater and offer unique shopping opportunities at reasonable
prices, and are typically open Thursday afternoons/evenings (see
their individual Facebook pages for details).

Additionally, a newly-established food tent will be
up before the show: Smoke & Glam, which offers an elevated bbq
experience with a twist. Some of their popular items include smoked
chicken salad sandwiches and potato salad topped with smoked
brisket. Find "Smoke & Glam" on facebook for more details, as the
specific July 11 location is not confirmed yet at press time.
Please note that there is currently construction on
Chestnut Street in Mason City; guests can still park near the Arlee
by turning South on Tonica and then heading West on Elm.
