Vashon Feature: December 2002

Vashon VDay 2003 - Events start this month!

Tuesday, December 10th, 7 pm - Dinner & a Movie at Co-housing Common House
We had a FAB evening of music, food & laughter at this fund-raising event for the production of "The Vagina Monologues" (written by Eve Ensler) benefit performance for Vashon Youth & Family Services. Music was by Arioso String Ensemble, *amazing* food was done by Emily Vogt of Emily's Catering, and the premiere screening of the video by Lynann Politte titled "Vashon, V-Day & The Vagina Monologues 2002" was a HUGE hit!!!

If you missed this documentary of last year's play -- including a sample of the monologues and interviews with the actors -- we hear rumor that you might get another chance! Keep checking back here for updates -- and we'll let you know dates & time & all the scoop as we get it!
