update. Everything you need to know about Ten West Center for the
Arts this month.
Issue 5, June
May wrap-‐up May was a trying month here at Ten West. We were burglarized early in the month and a lot of our time went to tracking down the burglar and installing security cameras in the building. Many thanks go out to all of our concerned neighbors and friends on various social networks. Because of our close-‐knit community, we were able to track down the perpetrator and regain all of our valuables that were taken. There is a sliver lining in this whole situation. This burglary and a couple other attempts were the catalyst for forming a neighborhood watch in Fortville.
On a brighter note, we are also transitioning from spring to summer! The Shakin’ Shamrocks 4H club spent a service day at Ten West laying down mulch and planting flowers outside. We truly appreciate their service. The club meets every other Sunday at Ten West.
Summer is a busy time for us. We are starting new programs, hosting new events, and welcoming new members into our community. Join us for what is sure to be a fun-‐packed season!
Ten West Academy starts this fall! Your child could be part of the inaugural class! Find out more on page 3.

Three years ago, the first Saturday of June was just another day at Ten West. It was our first year in Fortville and we had no idea what Ball Day was! We were surprised to see hundreds of people lining Church Street and to hear the blaring sirens of our Fire and Police departments. After seeing how much fun all of the kids on the floats were

having, we knew we needed to participate the next year. So we had a little band play out on the steps of the building as the kids passed by. This year, we decided to up the stakes. Ten West joined the parade for the first time with the Community Marching Band. We played “Take Me Out 2 the Ball Game,” a jazzy rendition of
