Past Events
WES ISELI MAGICALLY ADDS MOOLAH TO THE WOODWORKERS COFFERS!
Wes Iseli, the magician who fooled Penn and Teller appeared at the LOW Community Center on Saturday JUNE 7 for a children’s performance at 2 PM and an ADULTS ONLY performance at 7 PM. What a magical day he had in store for all of us! The kids were enthralled by his fun, imaginative tricks, and especially their chance to to be a magician alongside Wes for a memorable moment that day!
Many thanks to our MAGIC SHOW SPONSORS:
The adults-only show brought many in audience on stage for magic, fun and lots of laughs. In the meantime, FLOW was able to raise approximately $9,000 for the Lake of the Woods WOODWORKERS. This should help them in creating a magical space of their own here in Lake of the Woods.
Congratulations to Debbie Stratton who won $772 at the first Concert at the Point last night, May 23, 2025. Debbie made a donation of $200 to the Equestrian Center to support student scholarships in honor of her granddaughter, Annabelle Stratton.
