One SAFE Place Shasta

"We are honored to be partnering with One SAFE Place during this holiday season. Our management team chose OSP because we believe in the importance of what they offer and the impact and well being it has on the families in our community." - Jay, Redding Barnes & Noble

A special THANK YOU to Redding Barnes & Noble co-managers Jay and Melissa, who have selected us to be the recipients of their Christmas book drive this year! Their team have already collected OVER 300 BOOKS for our sheltered families in need!

The book drive runs for a couple more weeks for anyone who still wants to participate. Store employees are ready to assist with the simple process of donating once you reach the register.

We are so incredibly grateful and humbled by the continued generosity of this community!

Dancer Spotlight #6: Chris Caldwell & Chase Kinney

Last, but by no means least, are the vivacious duo Chris and Chase, who commanded the dance floor during their performance of Aqua's "Barbie Girl" (Tiesto remix) in Act One and received a STANDING OVATION from the audience after performing to Christina Aguilera's "Genie In A Bottle" (Scott Bradlee's Postmodern Jukebox cover) in Act Two.

Dancer Spotlight #5: Ericka Jones & Dakota Wahl

Someone who exudes excitement, cheerfulness, and fun can light up a room.
