The program featured a character named Alice singing in a Christmas Talent Show the song: “The Twelve Days of Christmas!” As she gets to each individual number, the corresponding characters enter on stage and surprise her with their witty and funny behavior! For instance, Turtle and Dove are actually lawyers trying to sue Santa Claus!!! Every twelve days were represented throughout the show!

This musical was well received by the audience, as we had over 200 parents and friends who watched the program and then were treated to refreshments afterwards. A special thank you to all who helped make this production a huge success!

Labor Day is a United States federal holiday observed on the first Monday in September (September 6 in 2010).

The first Labor Day in the United States was celebrated on September 5, 1882 in New York City. It became a federal holiday in 1894, when, following the deaths of a number of workers at the hands of the U.S. military and U.S. Marshals during the Pullman Strike, President Grover Cleveland put reconciliation with the labor movement as a top political priority.
