Exciting and Educational Winter Ed-Ventures Daytrippers Dinner Theatre Presents “The Bikinis” What could be better than a musical beach party in the middle of a Minnesota winter? A school bus will whisk you away to the Jersey Shore for a rockin’ good time as you witness the reunion of a girl group called The Bikinis. Hits such as It’s in His Kiss, Yellow Polka Dot Bikini, Heat Wave, Under the Boardwalk, and These Boots are Made for Walkin’ will have you dancing in the aisles. The tour leaves from the parking lot at Oak-Land Middle School at 11:30 am and returns to the same location at 4:00 pm. Please note there is no building access as school is in session. Your fee includes a buffet lunch, show ticket, and school bus transportation. Register by February 20. No refunds after this date. Date: Thu, Feb 27 Time: 11:30 am–4:00 pm Cost: $55 Class #: AET2 Location: Oak-Land Middle School, Parking Lot Sweet Treats Tour You’ll want to eat a healthy lunch before this tour because the afternoon revolves around sugar! Sweet Chocolat is a small artisan chocolatier in Arden Hills specializing in unique, handmade chocolate goodies. Learn about the history of chocolate, chocolate tempering, and the process used to create the treats that surround you. And of course no trip to a chocolate shop is complete without sampling and shopping! At the new Northern Soda factory, you’ll have a chance to participate in the production of 1950’s style craft sodas by mixing ingredients, observing, and assisting on the canning and packing lines. For the business side of the operation, help create a commercial for a soda flavor and work quality control by sampling the soda and locating the “bad” cans in the canning area. After experiencing the entire operation, the best is yet to come—relaxing with your favorite can of Northern Soda and popcorn in the taproom. Tour leaves Gladstone at 12:00 pm and returns to the same location at approximately 4:00 pm. Your fee includes school bus transportation, tours and activities, chocolate and soda samples, and one can of soda. Any additional purchases of chocolate or soda are on your own.
