One day only, the Aurora Firecrack-er Festival nonetheless has more ac-tivities planned this year than last, said Mike Peters, committee member.

A project improving the walking trail in Lesko Park was expected to be underway last year, so the festival was moved to a couple blocks of Ind. 56.

This year, it will be back in the park, but with the project completion set for June, it won’t include craft booths, as the park grounds may still be recover-ing, he said.

Hopefully, the crafts will return in 2013 when the festival may go back to two days.

As for this year, a full range of ac-tivities and entertainment is planned for the festival Saturday, June 30.

Opening at 12:30 p.m., the enter-tainment will begin with Bob Hudson’s Country Kings, and activities with the king and queen contest. At 2:30 p.m., the Showtime Dancers will perform.

Meanwhile, registration for the baby contest will be from 12:30 p.m. to

3:15 p.m., with the contest from 3:30 p.m. to 5 p.m. At that point, the prince and princess contest will begin for youngsters grades two and three from Dearborn, Ohio, Switzerland and/or Ripley counties.

See the Prince and Princess contes-tants on Page ?.

Evening activities will begin with the presentation of colors by the Ko-rean War veterans at 6:30, followed by the National Anthem, a prayer service, and, at 6:40 p.m., awards to veterans. Hoosier Hoedowners will perform at 7 p.m., and the Modulators at 8 p.m., followed by fireworks over the Ohio River promptly at 10 p.m., weather permitting.

Folks are invited to bring picnics to the park for the festival, but there also will be food vendors. The festival com-mittee is not charging for vendor space for qualifying vendors, said Peters.

Rain date for fireworks will be Sun-day, July 1, also at 10 p.m.

Have you ever wanted to drive one of those nifty hydro-planes that go roaring past during the A Roar of Thunder regatta?

Well, this year you could learn to do so, said Charlotte Hastings, coordinator of the event at Aurora’s riverfront Lesko Park.

“They’re doing a driv-ing school which will be a new thing this year,” she said. It’s one of four places the Powerboat Superleague is offering schools, which will be open to the public.

Two two-seater pow-erboats will be avail-able just for the training, which will take place

both in a pool somewhere and on the Ohio River, she said.The Saturday, Aug. 18, and Sunday, Aug. 19, event is the

14th annual regatta for Aurora. Racing will occur on both days, and food vendors will be available. Opening ceremo-nies will be at noon.

“If we can come up with enough money, we’ll have an airshow,” said Hastings.

Live entertainment also is planned, definite-ly for Saturday afternoon and possibly Sunday af-ternoon as well.

For more informa-tion about the regatta or the driving school, call 1-877-571-6004.

Don’t you dare miss the BIG event of this little burg this summer. Rivertown Player’s 30th Musical Production All Shook Up runs July 19, 20 and 21 at the Lawrenceburg High School Auditorium with an 8 p.m. curtain time.

One fine day in 1955 Shea Haney, portraying, Natalie, a teenage girl from a small Midwestern town is dreaming of riding off on a motor-bike with the man who will change her life.

Much to Dennis’ (her best friend and veteran RTP and LHS actor Cody Havlin) dismay, it is not him.

As Sylvia, a local watering hole owner, Carla Zell, director of last summer’s offering of “Once Upon a Mattress” and starring in 2010’s “HONK, the ugly duckling musical” she brings this quirky role to life.

Other veterans of the LHS and RTP stage find romance in this play. Ryan Dittmer and Amanda Borch-ers, as Jim and Miss Sandra, seem smitten with each other while Jamie Haney playing Lorraine and new-comer Nick Hudson as Dean find each other.

Ten more extremely talented ac-tors and actresses round out this cast of eighteen.

When a mysterious stranger on a motorcycle stops in town for re-pairs, Ethan Brunner (most recently starred in “Streetcar Named Desire” this past March) as Chad, sizes up the sleepy town and electrifies the bar patrons with the rebellious spirit of his music.

Rounding out this veteran talented

cast are Lynn Minges as Mayor Matilda, Dan Toon as Sheriff Earl along with ensemble members, John Beckelhymer, Erika Holt, Wally Lore, Kyle Reece, Shelby Rose, Brittany Sandlin, Shaun Vilardo and Hannah Weismiller.

From Boomers to community youth, everyone will greatly enjoy this music from the mid fifties.

Drag out your poodle skirt, slick back your hair and come join the fun. You will also be electrified with “Don’t Be Cruel,” Jailhouse Rock,” “Love Me Tender,” “Blue

Suede Shoes” (starring the entire cast of 18) and, of course the title song, “All Shook Up.”

You will also be wowed by the choreography created by LHS’s own talented graduate Kayleigh Coriell.

Coriell is currently in her third year of being a Young American and brings great creativity and 1950’s “style” to the stage.

hundreds of mostly older cars and other vehicles will roll into Southeast Indiana within one week’s time.

That’s because two renown car shows are less than a week apart: the Shiner Pride Car Show Sunday, July 1, in Rising Sun, and the River City Classic Car Show Saturday, July 7, in Aurora.

R e g i s -t r a t i o n for ei-ther show is $20 day of the show, and runs from 8 a.m. to noon, sponsors said. Preregistration can save folks heading to the Aurora show $5, said River City Classic Car Club Vice President Gerald Vonheder.

In Rising Sun, the show is spon-sored by the city but run by the Shin-ers Band Boosters, said band director Ron Eads.

Folks can pre-register at shinerpri-decarshow.com.

“There are classes for cars, trucks and bikes, and they are classed by years, not by model,” said Eads.

The classes include six for cars and four each for trucks and motor-cycles. Judging starts at 10 a.m., with early arrivals judged first. Trophies are awarded at 4:30 p.m.

A minimum of 150 trophies will be awarded, with the number of trophies dependent on the number of entries in a class. The bigger the class, the more trophies, said Eads.

Additional trophies are awarded for Best of Show, Best Engine, Best Paint

and Best Interior.The first 250 entrants will receive

dash plaques. The show usually draws between 350 and 400 vehicles. Con-cession stands and 50s, 60s and 70s music will be provided to entertain the crowd, said Eads.

For additional information, call him at 513-284-4939.

Ride into River CityIn Aurora the next weekend, about

250 to 260 vehicles are expected, said Vonheder. The club will award

75 trophies, plus a few special t roph ies . Some are sponsored in memory

of an indi-vidual or in-

dividuals.“Then there’s the Mayor’s

Trophy, the Fireman’s Trophy and Policeman’s Trophy, and Best of Show, too,” he said. The trophies are based on a point system, including how clean a car is, what condition the body is in, etc. There are no classes as such.

During the show, the sponsor will give away $25 every half hour, and folks also can participate in a split the pot, he said.

The first 100 to register will get goody bags and dash plaques, and, if they pre-register, a free T-shirt, he said.

Awards will be announced at 3:30 p.m. For more information, go to the website: rivercityclassicsaurorain.com.

Meanwhile, the car club has begun its summer cruise-ins which are 6 p.m. to 9 p.m. the first Thursday of every month through September, on the north end of Bridgeway Street in Aurora.

Beyond the Fourth of July

Country music legends Aaron Tippin and Sammy Kershaw will co-headline the musi-cal entertainment during the 41st annual Swiss Wine Festival. The entertainers will perform individually and then together on Fri., Aug. 24, from 7 p.m. to 10:30 p.m/ on the festival’s Big Stage.

The SWF spans four days—Thursday, Aug. 23, through Sunday, Aug. 26, 2012 at Paul Ogle Riverfront Park in Vevay.

Known in the music in-dustry as the “Hillbilly Her-cules,” Tippin will kick-off Fri. evening’s performance from 7 p.m. to 8:15 p.m.

Apart from writing, re-cording, and wowing crowds with his live appearances, he is also a pilot, farmer, wine-maker, outdoorsman, avid bodybuilder, and devoted family man.

Fresh from unveiling He Believes, an ex-clusive album for Cracker Barrel Old Coun-try Stores, Tippin’s concern that country music turned its back on its highway heroes prompted the release of In Overdrive. This second collection features trucker classics such as East Bound and Down, Drivin’ My Life Away, and many more.

Tippin has produced mega hits such as You’ve Got To Stand For Something, Work-ing Man’s PhD., and Kiss This, a “cheeky” No. 1 song he co-wrote with his wife and

partner-in-everything, Thea. Five of his al-bums are certified “gold,” with a sixth CD—Read Between the Lines— established at the “platinum” level.

Sammy Kershaw will perform from 8:45 p.m. to 10 p.m. Debuting on the music scene in the early 90s, Kershaw has remained one

of the most consistent power hitters in country music both with a chain of major hit records and sell-out touring schedules.

Often referred to as the heir apparent to the legend-ary voice of George Jones, Kershaw helped make the ‘90s a shining decade for country music.

It’s a comparison not lost on Sammy, who grew up in the Cajun country of Louisi-ana on a diet of crawfish and country music. Kershaw’s plan for country music is re-

claiming its roots and recapturing the spirit that made it great—the recording studio.

Along with his music, helping others is a subject close to Kershaw’s heart. The old-est of four children, his father’s tragic death forced him to mature even faster than the clubs and honky-tonks he was performing in at age 12.

Kershaw speaks openly today of years spent battling substance abuse and addic-

tions, and encourages youths “not to follow in my foot-steps.”

Kershaw’s tough, macho exterior is deceiving. He’s considered a “softie,” es-pecially when the subject turns to kids and improving their lives. Establishing the Sammy Kershaw Foundation

in his hometown of Kaplan, more than two million dol-lars in aid has helped orga-nizations such as the Make a Wish Foundation and those that establish camps for crip-pled children.

Kershaw’s contributions to the country music industry has also propelled him into the record books with “plati-num” albums that contained hits such as, She Don’t Know

She’s Beautiful, Working Woman’s Holiday, Cadillac Style, Don’t Go Near The Water, and many other mile-stones.

The Tippin/Kershaw per-formances are included in the $4 SWF admission charge. A $3 parking fee is additional if needed.

An autograph session with both entertainers will take place after the performances.

oh, What a night out Aurora’s Night Out starts at 6 p.m. Tuesday, Aug. 7. Food, fun, games, the chance to climb on a fire truck and a demonstration from a police K-9 unit are all on tap. Look for more at thedcregister.com and thejour-nal-press.com closer to the date.

Friday night’s enter-tainment will be classic rock performed by After Midnight from the Day-ton area. A jazz band also will perform, she said.

The parade itself be-gins at 10:30 a.m. Sat-urday with a new route this year, to avoid closing state highways, she said.

Starting from Rising Sun High School, the pa-rade will turn onto South High Street, pass the Ris-ing Sun Fire Department, go down Plum Street, turn right past the ele-mentary-middle school, and return to the high school.

“Everything stays above Walnut Street this year. … It was closing all of the outgoing and incoming streets,” said Scott.

Opening Saturday eve-ning will be the Hunter Smith Band, formed by the former punter for the Colts.

They’ll play from 6:45 p.m. to 8:15 p.m.

“He’s really good. He does his own music … country, rock, gospel,” said Scott, noting his songs have meaning and a story.

“Once you sit and lis-

ten to him, he’s very en-tertaining.”

Folks from everywhere are invited to attend.

“People enjoy coming down and spending the day on the riverbank in Ohio County,” she said.
