The high energy show includes holiday tunes, creative and hilarious skits and magical illusions by award-winning magician Bruce Amato. The matinee showing includes a gourmet sandwich box meal with sandwich, pasta salad, chips, dessert and beverage.

The trip is scheduled for Nov. 28 from 8 a.m. to 7 p.m. The $145 price tag includes dinner show admission, deluxe motorcoach transportation, taxes and gratuities. Register at www.wsccalumni.org/christmasdinnershow by Nov. 1. Limited seating is available.

The “We Need a Lot of Christmas” Dinner Show at Fiddle Dee Farms offers magical and musical entertainment.

The Musical Christmas Tour is a three-day, two-night trip to Tennessee planned for Dec. 5-7, 2023. On the way to Clarksville, Tenn., where the group will lodge both nights, they will stop in Columbia, Tenn., for a Dutch treat lunch at Legends Restaurant and take a tour of the home of James K. Polk, the 11th president of the United States. After arriving in Clarksville, the group will have dinner at Tanglewood House where they will also get to create holiday cookies and enjoy music from a bluegrass band. An after-dinner stroll along the Cumberland Riverwalk will allow visitors to gaze at the one million lights of the Christmas on Cumberland display.

Days two and three include more Christmas fun and shopping. A viewing of the Roxy Regional Theatre’s production of “White Christmas,” a visit to Miss Lucille’s Marketplace, the Storyteller Museum and Johnny Cash’s Hideaway Farm, with a performance by the Man in Black’s nephew Mark Alan Cash, will take up day two. On the way home on day three, the group will make a stop in Bell Buckle, Tenn., for more shopping and in Lynchburg, Tenn., for lunch at Miss Mary Bobo’s Boarding House.

The cost for the trip ranges from $664 to $944 based on occupancy and Alumni Association membership status. Visit www.wsccalumni.org/christmas23 for more information or to make a reservation.
