When most Polar Bears move to campus on Aug. 16, and as Welcome Weekend commences to help students ease into the fall ’23 semester, Ohio Northern University’s decade-long Orientation Leader (OL) tradition will again be evident. Becoming a college student or transferring to a new campus can be daunting. OLs make this important rite of passage much less so by providing guidance, answering questions, and much more. In the process, they learn a lot about themselves, too.
Ohio Northern University has announced children’s auditions for its 2023 Holiday Spectacular musical extravaganza.
Auditions for singers and dancers between the ages of 5 and 12 will take place from 4:00-6:00 p.m. Sunday, Sept. 10 in the Freed Center for The Performing Arts, 500 W. College Ave., Ada.
Those auditioning may be asked to sing and should be ready to participate in a dance call (jazz and/or tap shoes). No prepared dance or vocal solos will be accepted.
The Holiday Spectacular will be performed on Ohio Northern University’s campus on Nov. 16, 17 and 18; and in Lima, Ohio on Dec. 1, 2 and 3.
