Faculty variety show
"A Little Night Music," a musical variety show by Chelsea School District faculty and friends, will take place at 7 p.m. Friday at the Chelsea High School auditorium.
Tickets are $8 for adults and $5 for students and seniors. They will be available at the Chelsea Pharmacy and at the door.
Proceeds will benefit the Chelsea Music Boosters.
Heart screening
High school athletes are invited to a free screening at Chelsea Community Hospital from 8 a.m. to 1 p.m. Saturday.
The "Health Edge Heart Check" program gives student athletes the opportunity to be checked by cardiologists and clinical staff for pre-existing heart conditions and abnormalities.
The goal of this program is to identify any heart conditions or abnormalities that may increase the student's risk of sudden death during physical activity.
The screening process includes a review of health history, a blood pressure check and an electrocardiogram (EKG).
Results of the screening will be mailed to each student within one week.
Cranesbill Books contest
Cranesbill Books, 108 E. Middle St. in Chelsea, announces that March is "Dummies Month."
The popular "Dummies" book series, which aids the layman in everything from taxes to dog training, knitting to menopause, sudoku to diabetes, has reached iconic status with a book for just about everyone.
Everyone who purchases a book in the "Dummies" series from Cranesbill Books during March is eligible for a $5 rebate.
In conjunction with "Dummies Month," Cranesbill Books is holding an essay contest, open to all ages. Tell us your dumbest moment (something you're not too embarrassed about) and how a book from the "Dummies" series might have helped you.
The winner will receive a "Dummies" book of their choice from Cranesbill Books.
