The long awaited daytripper excursion to see "Phantom of the Opera" at the Los Angeles Music Centers' Ahmanson Theatre occurred on Sunday, October 8, 1989. Forty-four (44) participants enjoyed the event which was sold out well in advance. The good news is there are three more excursions planned to see the play on December 17, 23 and 28. The bad news is, they are also sold out. More good news . . . one (1) more trip will be advertised in the Recreation Winter-Spring brochure, anticipated to be out December 20, 1989.
