YAH Purpose
The Young at Heart Ministry is for Senior Adults (those past retirement age) in the Dayton, Ohio area. We provide times of fellowship and entertainment during our monthly Luncheons. We also provide the opportunity to see interesting places and things around the area during our monthly Day Trips. Once a year (sometimes more frequently) we offer a longer trip to see areas far from Dayton. All of our programs are designed to be honoring to our Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ.
Thursday, February 4, 2010 our Young at Heart group went to the Cedarville University theater to see the Shakespeare play, "Much Ado About Nothing". This was a fun play (probably the most fun one that he did). It is interesting that this was written over 400 years ago in 1598. The setting of this play has been modernized to take place in the mid 1940s (post WWII) in Charleston, South Carolina. Interestingly, only the location, costumes and characters were changed. The old English was still spoken. One other significant change to go with the location theme was the addition of Swing music and dancing. All in all, this was a fun experience.
The play was done in the theater in the Stevens Student Center next to Cedar Lake. I even took time to make a quick tour of the book store and cafe in the lower level.
After the play, we went to the Student Cafeteria for lunch. I was impressed with our meals and thought they were very good. Great value for the price!I believe everyone in our group enjoyed this trip and will be sure to include Cedarville activities in our Day Trips for the future.
