Doggy Dash 5K Walk and Fun Run

Valley View High School

The Mayor’s Youth Advancement Council of Jonesboro presents Doggy Dash 5K Walk & Fun Run. The event is going to be held at the Valley View High School Parking lot.
This event is intended to get the public out with their best four-legged friends and to raise money for the exceptional community work that the MYAC and NAFA (Northeast Arkansans for Animals) Rescue do every day. NAFA is an all volunteer rescue that specializes in low-cost vaccination events and low-cost cat neuters, in conjunction with Jonesboro Animal Services.
Join the students of the MYAC by bringing your pup (or not) and participating in a 5K Fun Run / Walk for charity! If you cannot join us in person, become a virtual participant. We hope to see you there! This is not a timed event. Proceeds will be divided between the MYAC and Northeast Arkansas for Animals Rescue.

The Plastics will take the Forum Theater stage for Mean Girls JR! This “fetch” musical is packed with keen wit, an undeniably catchy score, and a sincere message for everyone. Cady Heron may have grown up on an African savanna, but nothing prepared her for the wild and vicious ways of her strange new home: suburban Illinois. How will this naïve newbie rise to the top of the popularity pecking order? By taking on The Plastics, a trio of lionized frenemies led by the charming but ruthless Regina George. Cady and her friends devise a “Revenge Party” to end Regina’s reign with Cady going undercover as an aspiring Plastic. When the lines between the real Cady and her Plastic self get blurred, she must find her way back to herself and her true friends. From writer Tina Fey (30 Rock), lyricist Nell Benjamin (Legally Blonde) and composer Jeff Richmond (Unbreakable Kimmy Schmidt. Adapted from Fey’s 2004 blockbuster film and the Broadway smash hit, Mean Girls JR.
