As part of the project, county 4-H offices and 4-H clubs will collect new or gently used jeans of any size. Jeans collected will be donated locally to assist any individual or organization with a need for jeans. “Teens for Jeans will affect the state of South Dakota tremendously, as jeans will be provided to those in need,” said Hayden Niles, State 4-H Science Ambas- sador and member of the statewide 4-H Community Service Project Committee. Community members are encouraged to drop-off their new or gently used unwanted jeans at their local county 4-H office or VFW Auxiliary. A complete listing of county 4-H offices can be found online. Local organizations willing to accept the donated jeans are encouraged to contact a county 4-H office to discuss logistics for receiving the collected items. Teens for Jeans was selected by the at- tendees of the 2019 4-H Teen Leadership Conference held each year in Brookings, S.D. The State 4-H Ambassadors will provide oversight and coordination of the service-learning project. The project will run until Aug. 1. “It is important for 4-H members and other youth to learn and engage in community service projects because it allows them to give back to the community that has done so much to support them. Not only does community service give youth satisfaction, but it also improves mental and physical health. Giving back to the community helps people in need and it makes participants feel better so it’s a win-win scenario,” said Niles. For more information about the Teens for Jeans project, contact your county 4-H office or Hilary Risner, SDSU Extension Regional 4-H Youth Program Advisor, at 605.394.1722 or by email. BULL SALES MMC Brings The Audience On Stage For Off-Broadway Comedy Have you ever wanted to know what women sit around and talk about? Come and find out at Mount Marty College’s run of the off-Broadway comedy “A Coupla White Chicks Sitting Around Talking,” written by John Ford Noonan and featuring music by Loudon Wainwright III. In this two-woman play, Maude has to contend with new nosey neighbor from Texas, Hannah Mae, who is trying to befriend Maude at any cost. The result is a hilariously unconventional relationship that will either result in the friendship of a lifetime or a chaotic mess. “The play is light-hearted and a thrill to be in,” said actor Samantha Soukup, a sophomore majoring in nursing at Mount Marty. “This play is about two women who are finding who they are while building a friendship.” But audiences will not experience this play in a traditional way. Instead, Mount Marty College is bringing the audience up onto the Marian Auditorium stage, only a couple of feet away from the pair of actors, to fully immerse them into the story. “There’s lots of details that you wouldn’t see in a normal show, such as a working stove that we will use to cook real food,” says actor Elita Eastman, a fresh- man performing arts major at MMC. “Anywhere you sit, you’ll see a different show!” This play is the second show in Mount Marty’s 20192020 theatre season. For students at Mount Marty, the active theatre season enables them a wealth of opportunities to gain hands-on experiences in acting, directing and design that may be carried forward to a future career or help them serve their community through the arts. Sponsored by Linda’s Angel Crossing, “A Coupla White Chicks Sitting Around Talking” will run from Feb. 7-9 for a total of four shows — 7:30 p.m. performances on Friday and Saturday and 2 p.m. matinees on Saturday and Sunday. Due to the unique style of the show, seating is limited to 140 per performance. Call 605-6681234 or order your tickets online at www.mountmarty. edu/boxoffice. The play is rated PG-13.
