The Play with Rocky Bleier
<p><strong>Four-time Super Bowl champion Rocky Bleier performs his one-man show. <em>The Play</em>, based on his almost unbelievable life story, takes audiences into three bars from Bleier’s life where he tells stories of family, war, and the heart of Steeler Nation. Bleier recalls being selected in the 16th round of the 1968 draft by the Pittsburgh Steelers, only to be drafted one year later by the Army and sent to Vietnam. Severely injured, he was expected to never play football again. However, with personal determination and the encouragement of Steelers owner Art Rooney, Bleier was back at training camp in 1970 where he became an indispensable part of the Steelers dynasty with Super Bowl victories in 1975, 1976, 1979, and 1980. Journey through the decades of family anecdotes, tales of Steelers glory, and multimedia projections bringing Bleier’s remarkable story to life. Premiering in Pittsburgh in 2015, this heartfelt and inspiring memoir is perfect for sports fans of all ages.</strong></p> 2021-12-01 21:00:00 -06001/28/227:30 p.m.John and Alice Butler Hall - University of Dubuque Heritage CenterDubuque -

The Christmas Family Tree Musical
<h5>The Christmas Family Tree Musical</h5><p>The Christmases (Merry, Holly, Jolly, and Whitey Christmas) are having their annual family tree trimming party for all the Christmas cousins. When they invite their neighbor, Abbie Adams to join the fun, the Christmas family shares Jesus’ family tree from Matthew, Chapter One. Through this genealogy, Abbie Adams learns of Rahab’s bravery, Ruth’s loyalty, David’s repentance, Josiah’s wisdom, and Mary and Joseph’s obedience. But most importantly, she learns that she, too, can be adopted into the Christmas Family Tree of faith.</p> 2021-11-16 11:30:00 -0600

Introduction to Curling
<p>This five week course will introduce you to the Scottish sport of curling. Each week you will learn about the positions, rules, etiquette, equipment, and a new skill to be able to play the sport of curling. Each week you will also be playing in games against your fellow classmates. <strong>Please read: </strong> Cedar Rapids Curling provides all the necessary curling equipment, but you will be on ice and the air temperature usually is in the 40’s (with no wind). Bring a separate pair of clean athletic shoes, whose soles are clean of any rocks, dirt, gum, grass, etc., to wear on the ice (no heels, open toed shoes, dress shoes, boots, slippers, loafers, or any footwear with a hard sole). Do not wear these shoes to the arena, as you they will pick up the previously mentioned rocks, dirt, gum, grass, etc. from the outside, rather change into them when you are inside the ice arena. Dress in warm, loose fitting clothing (tight jeans will hinder movement). You may want to shed a layer once you start playing. Many participants are more comfortable wearing gloves or mittens and a hat. Don’t forget to bring a sense of humor too! </p><ul><li>Registration is required prior to the class start date. If you have questions or would like to register, please visit <a href="http://www.kirkwood.edu/ce">www.kirkwood.edu/ce</a> or contact 319-398-1022.</li></ul> 2021-12-01 20:30:00 -06001/11/226:30 p.m.ImOn Ice (Cedar Rapids Ice Arena)Cedar Rapids
