Beth Briant’s program this week was a family affair. Her son and daughter-in-law, David and Dusty Witcher, are currently hosting an exchange student, Cody Johnson, from Scotland. Cody is participating in this exchange through the program Foreign Links Around the Globe, or FLAG. Unlike our Rotary exchange students who rotate between up to three host families during their year stay, Cody will board with the Witchers for her full year.

Tickets are $10 for adults, and free for students. Both shows will be staged at the Texas Crown Performance Hall. Tickets may be purchased from CHS Wildcat Theatre students.
