CONGRATULATIONS

Please note: We've noticed an error with the sound towards the end of the video. We are working to fix that and apologize for the problem.

From a seat in the Dixie High auditorium love appears real as Marius (Tanner Hafen) and Cosette (Avonlea Dalley) share multiple kisses.


Although it appears to be real, the Dixie High junior, Hafen explains “It was great working with a friend, it made it much easier to 'fall in love' on stage when you're good friends.” On the other hand Junior Avonlea seemed to think it was harder, “It was very hard to get into character because he's like my brother and I've known him for so long.”


When asked about funniest moments during rehearsal some things were left unsaid. One moment in which Tanner, Nate, and Avonlea  all agreed upon but said the moment will stay under lock and key, “Let's just say it was something that Mr. Saxton said to Nate that I won't repeat.”


Janae Klumpp mentioned that her funniest moment was “when Casey (Hobson) was creepin' on me in 'Lovely Ladies,' and when I went to hit him he missed my arm and we had a weird hitting fight.”

The Thought Behind the Walk-a-Thon


The Thought Behind the Walk-a-Thon

Dixie's Walk-A-Thon this year has a powerful idea and a great amount of emotional effort put into it.



This powerful idea was created from a beloved teacher that Dixie lost one year ago to breast cancer.


Paula Freeman is deeply revered as an amazing person who touched the lives of all those she came in contact with. The Walk-A-Thon was organized to honor her by raising money for the Paula Freeman Scholarship, which directly helps her children.
