SALMON PRAIRIE - A power outage did not stop Salmon Prairie School's student-written play based on "A Charlie Brown Christmas" held Dec. 20. With the light from a lantern and a few electric lights powered by a generator, the play went on with the student body of five students ranging in ages from first grade to sixth grade,
Teacher Holl Hubbard said the students spent the month of November working on their Christmas production. He said the students got experience in all subjects including writing, art, math, reading and relating to others while they created their presentation.
The electricity was out due to high winds falling trees over power lines. The outage lasted for the duration of the play.
Members of the audience including Salmon Prairie resident Dixie Meyer noted that it was like the old days before power was available in the valley. In those days, plays were performed with the aid of lantern light.
