favorite float, classic car or pageant
winner. A portion of the proceeds
from this year’s parade will be
donated to the St. Jude’s run. People
should be sure to be there before 10

registration is recommended for
those who wish to participate. For

Tom Sawyers and Huck Finns of Samuel Clemens’ day as the events
of the past are re-enacted, people discover that the charm preserved
by the author still lives in every boy or everyone who ever was a boy.
The fence-painting contest is the core event of National Tom
Sawyer Days and includes several days of events. All local contes-
tants compete in the first event to advance to the national contest.
A second event is held for contestants from all across Missouri who
advance to compete in the national contest. The national event is the
final event. The winner of the national event receives the governor’s
trophy, which may be presented to his state’s governor and displayed
in the state capitol for one year. The trophy is returned each year for
the next contest.
The national fence-painting contest is a three-part event with
contestants receiving points for authenticity of costume, speed and
painting quality. Contestants are encouraged to read “The Adven-
Jack Parker, of Hannibal, competes in the local fence-painting
competition at 2016’s National Tom Sawyer Days in Hannibal. Photo tures of Tom Sawyer” to attempt to capture a realistic look for their
by Jake Shane costume. These areas are judged by local dignitaries, distinguished
guests and the previous year’s champion. n

Tanyard Gardens, 100 Bird St.
It is named for the back-in-

Finn’s dissolute father, Pap,
slept. Now, during National Tom
Sawyer Days, Tanyard Gardens
is the refreshment center, enter-
tainment epicenter and general
headquarters of the event. The
garden was started by Hanni-
bal Jaycees in 1975 as a central
place for visitors to eat, drink,
relax and socialize — and keep
up with the event’s myriad of
activities.
The refreshment center fea-
tures a variety of foods, snacks
and beverages, including beer
and alcohol drinks, in a picnic
atmosphere.
There will be plenty of the
music of local and regional
musicians, and it is the perfect
place to catch up with friends on
the happenings of the day. n

Celebrating Molly Brown
on her 150th birthday
| By Lisa Marks
muny.org/the-unsinkable-molly-brown
I
n July 1867, in a small,
three-room cottage
on Denkler’s Alley
in Hannibal, a child
was born. John and
Johanna Tobin welcomed their
daughter, whom they named
Margaret, into their growing
household which included two
older daughters, Katie and Mary
Ann, and a son, Daniel. Katie,
the oldest of the Tobin children,
was thrilled with her new baby
sister and immediately formed
a close bond that would endure
throughout their lifetimes.
Who could have known that
this small, red-haired baby
would one day live a life of
wealth, adventure, political
and philanthropic pursuits and
heroism that the Tobin family
could have never dreamed? Who
would have thought the legend-
ary life of Margaret Tobin, bet-
ter known as the “Unsinkable”
Molly Brown, would continue to
be celebrated nearly a century
after her death?
Although the exact date is
not certain, scholars believe
that Margaret’s birth date was
July 18, 1867; this year marks
the 150th anniversary of her
birth. Margaret lived in the little
cottage on Denkler’s Alley until
the spring of 1886, when, as a
plucky 18-year-old, she boarded
a train at Hannibal’s Union
Depot and made her way to the with her older brother, Daniel. beyond the restraints she felt in female, she faced virtually no

Archery range,
trail open at Mark
Twain State Park
| By Ashley Szatala

M
ark Twain State Park recently unveiled
a 10-station, ADA-compliant event ar-
chery range and a 15-station 3-D target
trail at the Frank Russell Recreation
Area.
Installation of the range and trail is the result of commu-
nity demand for such activities.
“A lot of local people have been looking for this recre-
ational, outdoor experience. We heard their suggestion, and
we had between 30 and 35 archers in the community provide
input on the design and what they wanted,” U.S. Army Corps
of Engineers forester Allen Mehrer said.
“Originally, we envisioned something much simpler and
smaller. Then it kind of snowballed into something bigger.”
Area groups such as the lake’s FOREST Council, business-
es including Bass Pro Shop and parks and recreation grants
provided more money and help than the U.S. Army Corps of

Engineers originally anticipated receiving.
“We hopefully captured what archers are looking for.
We’re really excited about this,” Mehrer said. “Similar facili-
ties in the area are built on a smaller scale.”
Scott
Archers may shoot range targets from 20 to 80 yards
away.
“If a person has mobility issues, they can easily access
the targets,” Mehrer added. “The lumber they’re built out of
should ensure the targets last about 50 years.” Anderson’s

Nearby, people can walk a trail that simulates a hunting
experience. Targets in the shapes of deer, bears, boars, coy-
otes and turkeys are hidden among foliage, and sportsmen
take aim at the targets from the trail. The way the trail is set
up, there is no risk for others on the trail accidentally to be
struck, Mehrer said.
Visitors may use the range and trail free of charge. Within
the next few months, a box will be erected to accept dona-
tions to help pay for facility maintenance. Mehrer expects
the largest number of visitors to the range and trail to be in

Bluff City Theater closes season
with ‘Emily,’ ‘The Glass Menagerie’
| bluffcitytheater.com
T
he final two productions of the season at Bluff City
Theater present different perspectives on family yet
arrive at a similar conclusion — family has a way of
pulling people back no matter what.
Perhaps it is because both plays are considered
autobiographical depictions of the authors’ lives. Separated by half a
century and an entire continent, two authors — one male, one female
— sought to bring meaning to the bond defined by who we are and
from where we came.
“Emily: The Musical” is based on the series of novels by Canadian
writer Lucy Maud Montgomery. Emily longs to escape her island
home and become a great writer. As she is buffeted by fate and fail-
ure, she realizes her home and family are the bedrock upon which
her dreams are built. It is only when she writes about them that her
writing shines. “Emily” is a warm, uplifting ode that aims to make
us feel glad to be alive and to have people we love and who love us
back.
In “The Glass Menagerie,” Tom, also a writer, yearns to escape his
life of factory work, a dramatic mother and emotionally fragile sis-
ter. Tom escapes but is pulled back over and over again in his mind.
The play is based on Tennessee Williams’ life. His bittersweet story
is about people trapped by the same love and inability to be honest.
Bluff City Theater has assembled a creative team and cast to pres-
ent these two stories.
Jennifer Stewart (“The Heiress,” “Best of Enemies”) returns to di-
rect “Emily: The Musical.” Stewart, an accomplished musical theater
performer, has come full circle as she appeared in the original Cana-
dian production of this adaptation in 2002 as Ilse Burnley. Support-
ed by Musical Director Colin Healy (“C’est la Vie”) and Choreographer
David Jamieson (“Oliver!,” “Alice in Wonderland”), she will direct a
cast of 16 performers, including members of the Bluff City Theater
Young Company, drawn from local amateurs.
This is the American premiere of “Emily: The Musical.” Perfor-
mances run June 29 to July 8.
Director Sydnie Grosberg Ronga, well known to New York and
St. Louis theater-goers for her critically acclaimed work, will direct
“The Glass Menagerie,” her first production with Bluff City Theater.
She brings a fresh insight into Williams’ masterpiece with a decid-
edly younger cast than has been traditionally seen in professional
theater. In Grosberg Ronga’s vision, Tom is in his mid-20s, Amanda July 29.
