The theater is alive with The Sound of Music!

The final collaboration between Rodgers & Hammerstein was destined to become the world’s most beloved musical. Featuring a trove of cherished songs, including “Climb Ev’ry Mountain,” “My Favorite Things,” “Do-Re-Mi,” “Sixteen Going on Seventeen” and the title number, The Sound of Music won the hearts of audiences worldwide, earning five Tony Awards and five Oscars. The inspirational story, based on the memoir of Maria Augusta Trapp, follows an ebullient postulate who serves as governess to the seven children of the imperious Captain von Trapp, bringing music and joy to the household. But as the forces of Nazism take hold of Austria, Maria and the entire von Trapp family must make a moral decision.

Guided Birding Hike at Mahr Park Arboretum

February 14, 2026
8:00–10:00 AM
Meet at the Welcome Center

Join us for a peaceful and educational Guided Birding Hike at Mahr Park Arboretum led by Erika Wood, Hopkins County Cooperative Extension Horticulture Agent. This morning trek will take you through beautiful winter landscapes as we listen, watch, and identify the birds that call Mahr Park home.

Participants will also take part in the Great Backyard Bird Count. In this worldwide community science project, birders of all levels contribute to collecting valuable data by counting and reporting the birds they observe. These observations help scientists better understand bird populations and how they are changing over time.

Please bring your binoculars and wear closed-toe shoes suitable for walking on natural trails. Whether you’re a seasoned birder or just curious about our feathered friends, this hike offers an excellent way to connect with nature and contribute to a significant global effort.

We look forward to seeing you at the Welcome Center for the Trek!

For Christian County Residents Only. Anyone picking up for another household must provide that household’s name, address and the total number of household members.
