CROSSVILLE —
The holidays of 2011 have ended and the New Year of 2012 has begun. The Fairfield Glade Lions Club welcomes you back with a memorable Travelogue, “La Manche/The English Channel,” the tale of two cultures. It will take place Feb. 6 at the Palace Theatre starting at 7 p.m.
The voyage will take you from the White Cliffs of Dover to the craggy limits of Lands End, from the Alabaster Coast of Normandy to the Emerald Coast of Brittany. The English Channel is a journey along the facing shores of France and England. Sometimes friendly, often confrontational with historical relationships between these two great cultures that has always been intriguing.
The English Channel, or La Manche as it is called in France, can be a barrier, or it can be a link. Join Travel Adventurers Monty and Marsha Brown as they share their exciting film of a unique voyage of discovery along the North Coast of France, the South Coast of England and some islands in between.
The Fairfield Glade Lions Club has taken you on Travelogue trips around the world for the past 32 years. They all take place in warm surroundings, comfortable seats and freshly popped popcorn with soft drinks at reasonable prices. And speaking of reasonable prices, you can purchase tickets at the Palace Theatre door for only $7 a person if you do not have your season ticket.
Two more Travelogues are scheduled this winter. Buddy Hatton will expose us to “Iran, Then and Now” on March 5 and Doug Jones will take us on the “Great American Train Ride” on April 2.
