The Ohio State University at Marion's Five Nights on Campus cultural and performing arts series welcomes the acoustic eclectic group Simple Gifts on April 12th.  Karen Hirshon and Linda Littleton, who make up the group Simple Gifts, play a wide variety of ethnic folk music, including selections that range from lively Irish jigs and down-home American reels to hard-driving Klezmer freilachs, haunting Gypsy melodies, and exotic Balkan dance tunes.  Throughout their performance, Simple Gifts puts their own distinctive stamp on traditional tunes, creating some of the finest arrangements in folk music today:  swing fiddle creeps into a Romanian dance and spoons show up in an Irish reel.  It is obvious that these women love the music they play, and they know how to share their talents, their enthusiasm, and their sense of humor with the audience.  Tickets are available in advance by calling 740-725-6341 or at the door.  Tickets are $10 general admission, $9 seniors, $8 Ohio State Marion & MTC faculty & staff, and $4 students.

Student Organization Working with Local Red Cross to Support Troops
Now through April 30, The Buckeye Military Support Alliance, in cooperation with the Marion Chapter of the American Red Cross, will make available 8 collection boxes across campus for care package item donations to be sent to troops stationed overseas.

Items needed include snacks, such as: chips, pretzels, nuts, jerky, candies, cookies, gum, individual drink mix packets or canisters of drink mixes, etc.  Toiletries like baby wipes, toothbrushes, toothpaste, razors, shaving cream, cotton swabs, dental floss, cotton pads, feminine hygiene products, nail clippers, bar soaps, deodorants etc.  Other items you may want to donate are coupons for the above items,  gift cards, cash or check donations to purchase additional items that have not been donated, zip lock bags for bagging small items, magazines, books, DVD's, MP3 cards, apple gift cards for downloads, phone cards so they can call home.

Due to certain troop restrictions stationed overseas, we ask that no pornography or alcohol be donated, as we would not be able to send it.  Also, no chocolate please.

The group will meet on the 3rd Friday of the month at 10:30 a.m. in Morrill Hall Room 160 to pack these items for shipment.  All are welcome to join us for this project, and we are always looking for new members!
