SUMMARY:FSN- Comedian - Mike Paramore
DESCRIPTION:Mike Paramore is a clean stand-up comedian who uses humor to help students build resilience\, confidence\, and a healthier mindset when life does not go as planned.\nKnown for his warm presence and sharp observational comedy\, Mike has a rare ability to make students feel instantly comfortable. He pulls humor from everyday situations that students recognize\, awkward moments\, self-doubt\, pressure to perform\, and the stories we tell ourselves when things go wrong. Students laugh hard first\, lower their guard\, and become genuinely open to reflection and growth. \nMike has been featured on TV and streaming platforms\, including Dry Bar Comedy\, FOX’s Laughs\, and AXS TV’s Gotham Comedy Live. He has opened for well-known comedians such as Damon Wayans\, Jon Lovitz\, and Jay Pharoah\, and has performed at major events including the Just for Laughs Festival and the Stellar Awards. His comedy has earned top honors at multiple festivals\, including wins at the Cleveland Comedy Festival\, Laughing Devil Festival in New York City\, and Laugh Fest’s Best in the Midwest competition. \nIn school assemblies\, Mike blends clean stand-up comedy with a non-cheesy motivational message\, helping students reframe failure\, manage negative self-talk\, and keep moving forward even when things feel difficult. His approach aligns naturally with SEL\, PBIS\, and growth-mindset initiatives while avoiding heavy or triggering content. \nWhat truly sets Mike apart is how he makes people feel. His comedy is absurd\, uplifting\, and sincere. He makes life feel lighter and more manageable for both students and faculty. \nStudents leave Mike’s programs entertained\, encouraged\, and equipped with practical ways to turn setbacks into progress.

It also encourages me to make more artwork. I really like to see the art other people have made\, too\, because it gives me ideas on what I can do and make in the future.”\n														Lyza O.\n							“When I was chosen for Partners in Art\, I was in second grade. I was so excited to be chosen to present my art. It helped me grow as an artist and expand the mediums I attempted to create with. To this day\, nearly 13 years later\, my family still has this picture hanging in our dining room.”\n														Lauren W.\n							“My experience with Partners in Art was quite positive. Seeing my artwork framed and in such nice lighting really let me see the beauty of art\, not just my own but others as well. I was glad I chose a larger piece that was able to stand out\, but also showcased my hard work and dedication. The process to participate was also very easy and stress free. All in all\, Partners in Art was a lovely experience.”\n														Macy R. \nThe Partners In Art Program\, started in 1992\, allows students from Sturgis Area Schools to have their artwork displayed at local businesses throughout the school year. This program is designed to recognize outstanding young artists and heighten community awareness of our students’ artistic talents. This year we plan to invite students and their families\, businesses\, and teachers and school staff to the reception together. This will allow businesses to interact with the students\, and we feel it will build connections to help continue and grow this program. We have art demonstrations from Jane Kelley at Happy Stems Flower Stand\, and Stacey Richardson with various forms of art. \n																										 \nFunds provided in part by the William & Helen Doyle Exchange Club Fund at the Sturgis Area Community Foundation.

DESCRIPTION:Friday Social Night\n    	\n				Days\n			 :\n				Hours\n			:\n				Minutes\n			:\n				Seconds\n	$5 Cover at the Door\n					 \nFeaturing  Dusty Rhodes and the Ramblers Band\nFriday Social Night – Live Music\n     June 12\, 2026 \n    7:00pm \n   SYCA – Union B\n \n  $5 Cover at the Door \n		\n										\n									Meet the Band\n					 \nScheduled to Appear: \nTim Peterson\, Brian Brill\, Marjorie Shelito\, Ray Swinsick\, Pete Fair & Delbert Walling\nDusty Rhodes and the Ramblers is a band that was formed by merging together three different successful groups. Four of the six have been friends and bandmates since the early 80’s. The members have combined forces\, with over 200 years of professional musical experience\, to produce a series of themed shows to highlight the best music from the past six decades. The Ramblers (there is no Dusty!) are well-versed in many styles including jazz\, folk\, pop\, classical\, rock\, and blues\, and they know how to entertain an audience. \nThe show for 2026 is titled ‘The Softer Side of the 70s – A Folk-Rock Tribute\,’ and through-out the three hour concert the band performs hit songs that grew out of the folk music craze of the sixties and developed into the soft rock of the seventies\, combining folk with rock\, country\, and blues styles. This blended style further grew into the Roots/Americana music of the nineties. \nWith tight arrangements by Tim Peterson\, spot-on vocals by Marjorie Shelito\, rock-solid rhythms laid down by Ray Swinsick\, Pete Fair’s infectious bass lines\, and the soaring solo virtuosity of keyboardist Brian Brill and lead guitarist Delbert Walling\, the Ramblers will re-mind you why you loved the music of the 70s so much. Sing along\, smile\, tap the table\, or get up and dance – join us in celebrating the great music of the 1970s! \n\nCash Bar and Refreshments Available

With a little charm\, a touch of tech\, and a whole lot of confidence\, he pulls off the ultimate senior skip day—and takes us all along for the ride. From singing atop a parade float to joyriding in a vintage Ferrari through downtown Chicago\, Ferris Bueller’s Day Off is a rebellious\, heartwarming\, and hilariously clever celebration of youth\, freedom\, and friendship. \nDirected by the iconic John Hughes\, this 1986 classic is more than just a teen comedy—it’s a cultural milestone. Starring Matthew Broderick as the effortlessly cool Ferris\, the film captures the spirit of breaking the rules (without breaking a sweat)\, challenging authority\, and living in the moment. \nSo go ahead—play hooky with Ferris. Because sometimes the best lessons aren’t taught in school. \n\nhttps://youtu.be/0ZDbKhkLxTs?si=lfiAiESnOwkiDlv9		 \n\n	Sturges-Young Center for the Arts\n\n201 N.

Buzzards Gotta Eat\, Same as Worms.”\nThe Outlaw Josey Wales\nA Gritty Tale of Vengeance\, Redemption\, and the Relentless Spirit of the American West \nClint Eastwood directs and stars in one of the most iconic Westerns of all time—The Outlaw Josey Wales. Set in the chaotic aftermath of the American Civil War\, the film follows Josey Wales\, a Missouri farmer whose life is shattered when Union raiders kill his family. Driven by grief and vengeance\, Josey joins a Confederate guerrilla unit—but when the war ends\, he refuses to surrender and becomes a marked man\, branded an outlaw by a country eager to forget its sins. \nAs Josey flees across the untamed West\, he picks up a ragtag band of outcasts and misfits: a feisty Cherokee warrior\, a wisecracking old woman\, a young Navajo girl\, and a genteel pioneer woman searching for peace. Together\, they form an unlikely family\, standing against bounty hunters\, corrupt soldiers\, and their own haunted pasts. \nWith unforgettable lines\, stunning cinematography\, and a deeply human story of survival and honor\, The Outlaw Josey Wales blends Eastwood’s raw charisma with an unflinching look at the price of war and the resilience of the human spirit. \n“A masterwork of the Western genre… powerful\, poetic\, and deeply personal.”– The New York Times \nFilm Details\n\n\nDirected by: Clint Eastwood \n\n\nStarring: Clint Eastwood\, Chief Dan George\, Sondra Locke\, Bill McKinney \n\n\nReleased: 1976 \n\n\nGenre: Western / Drama \n\n\nRuntime: 135 minutes \n\n\nRide with Josey.
