Chamber Welcomes "I Think I Am" Foundation

WARNER ROBINS, GA- The Robins Regional Chamber of Commerce hosted a Ribbon Cutting Ceremony for the “I Think I Am” Foundation.

Founded by Deanna Moore in 2008, I Think I Am Foundation is a 501c3 non profit charitable organization which develops programs, curriculums and platforms to give children, given up for adoption and/or placed in foster care, self worth and self-actualization through developing, applying and maintaining positive belief patterns.

“The basis of our philosophy comes from Proverbs 23:7.  As a man thinketh, so is he,” said Moore. 

Being an adopted child and having first-hand experience with foster care systems, Moore says that her adoptive mother inspired her with the vision of the I Think I Am Foundation.

Northside High Presents 'The Drowsy Chaperone'

 

Houston County, GA – The Northside High School Theatre will present The Drowsy Chaperone May 3 – 5, 2012, at 7:00 p.m. and May 6, at 3:00 p.m., in the Ray Horne Theatre.  Tickets may be purchased for $8 at Northside’s front office as of April 23, 2012. 

A rare combination of unprecedented originality and blinding talent, The Drowsy Chaperone boldly addresses a great unspoken desire in all of our hearts: to be entertained.  If you've ever sat in a dark theatre and thought, "Dear Lord in heaven, please let it be good," this is the show for you!  It all begins when a die-hard musical-theater fan plays his favorite cast album on his turntable, and the musical literally bursts to life in his living room, telling the rambunctious tale of a brazen Broadway starlet trying to find, and keep, her true love.
