BISHOP HILL, IL - (February 8, 2010) – A special Swedish celebration called "Slå Katten Uti Tunnan," "Break the Cat out of the Barrel" will be Friday, February 12, 2010, from 7-10 pm at the historic old Colony School in Bishop Hill, IL. Cost is $5 per person. This Swedish pre-lenten celebration is fun-for-the-whole-family. We’ll break a paper maché barrel filled with goodies and prizes and choose a "cat king and queen" to reign over the Swedish/American folk dance party. Musicians for the evening include: John Heasley-guitarist, Zach May-cellist and Kalle Eriksson-fiddler. For more information contact Patti at (309) 375-6844 or Patricia.Christianson@yahoo.com.
