Marjorie Preston

Marjorie just finished writing about LEAF of Lake and Geauga counties for Today’s Family in March. The organization helps people going on to higher education find scholarships and other sources of money for college.

Buy yourself a Sun Press or Sun Messenger today for the latest edition of my new “Hillcrest Happenings” column. Or online, keep checking www.sunnews.com and searching on the phrases Hillcrest Happenings or Marjorie Preston.

Marjorie will serve as Assistant Editor on the Index to Jewish Periodicals for a fifth year. She started this endeavor in 2005 and kept up through 2007, taking off 2008 with the birth of her baby. She is back, and enjoys the fine-tooth comb skills of editing a periodicals index.

… but Marjorie will not be in it! Stay tuned for when Marjorie comes out of hibernation and is ready to do another show. This will probably be in March!

Marjorie is working on a story for the February edition of Today’s Family about a company that wants to help keep kids safe on the internet. Protect your child from internet predators and pick up a copy if you are in Lake County.

Marjorie is honored to have been asked to take over writing the “Hillcrest Happenings” column for the Sun Newspapers. Look for her first column in the coming weeks. In the meantime, check out the current edition of the Sun Press for her review of Dobama Theatre’s “Gutenberg! The Musical!”

Rockwell 9 will give a FREE improv performance at Bela Dubby on Saturday, December 5th at 8 p.m.  More info is at our MySpace site.

Marjorie will be discussing how to donate, a little background on the org., and how to receive toys if you are in need this holiday season.  Check out the issue on stands in early December.  Also note that Today’s Family is working on a new website!

Late word has come in that Marjorie’s videos have been accepted to the Cleveland Comedy Festival!  Buy tickets to the web video show Sunday, November 8th  here.  She will also be performing improv at Bogey’s on November 3rd at 8 p.m.  Tickets for that are $5.  And she will be working at the carnival downtown on Saturday, November 7.  Marjorie will also be attending shows she is not in.  She has not been doing much standup this year, so she is glad to be included in several other capacities.  Check out the festival website and attend as many events as you are able.  You will have great jokes you can tell at the watercooler and laughing has healing properties!  Plus it’s supporting local comics, who can really use it!
