• Test skills and get active: Practice pitching, throwing, fielding, hitting and base-running. Work on your swing and step up to the plate; lead off, run to second or back to the bag; throw from the infield or outfield with simulated plays; and grab a glove for catching practice;
• Explore the world of professional baseball: Turn yourself into a professional baseball player! Choose your player position and jersey number, add your name and snap your photo in front of a baseball card backdrop. Pretend to be the announcer and deliver the play-by-play using real game clips and sound effects. Learn about the teams that make up Major League Baseball, vocabulary and rules, and how to calculate statistics;
• There's nothing like a day at the game: Test your baseball knowledge with a challenging trivia game, and make your ballpark experience fun and realistic with props, costumes, and lots of real baseball equipment, memorabilia and graphics to explore.

Mar. 27th - 29th

The fabled children's ballet, Sleeping Beauty, will be presented by the Carnegie Performing Arts Center March 27, 28 and 29 at the Andrew Carnegie Music Hall, 300 Beechwood Avenue in Carnegie. Friday and Saturday performances will be at 8 p.m. and Sunday at 2 p.m. Tickets are $20 for adults and $18 for children, students and seniors. The ballet follows the story of young Sleeping Beauty, Aurora, whose christening is interrupted by the evil Maleficent who has been left out of the invitation. Maleficent casts a spell that decrees that Aurora will die on her 16th birthday by pricking her finger on a spindle. The Lilac Fairy, who has not yet given her gift, says that Aurora will not die but only sleep for a hundred years until a Prince awakens her.

The role of Aurora is played by Lauren Vicker while the evil Maleficent is played by her sister Allison Vicker. Both attend Montour High School. The Lilac Fairy is danced by Elizabeth Scalise, a Senior at Chartiers Valley. The Prince is danced by Gavin Helbig who attends Lincoln Park Charter School and is a resident of Carnegie. A cast of 60 children includes Fairy Tale characters, Princesses and Fairies. Monica Ryan, director of the Center, choreographs the production. For more information on Sleeping Beauty please call the Carnegie Performing Arts Center at 412-279-8887 or access the website at or look up the Carnegie Performing Arts Center on Facebook.
