PUTNAM — At 7 p.m. Nov. 16, The Complex Performing Arts Centre in downtown Putnam is coming to the aid of sister theater, the Bradley Playhouse.
The Complex will host a Gala Fundraising Evening to benefit The Bradley Playhouse.
In September, a section of the 112-year old theatre’s ceiling failed, prompting inspections to assess safety and consultations with experts to determine comprehensive remedies. “The ceiling project is progressing more slowly than we had hoped,” Bradley Playhouse Business Manager Patricia Green said a couple weeks ago. “We are still interviewing contractors and engineers, obtaining reports, and determining the best way to proceed. We are moving forward as quickly as is prudent to be certain that our theatre is restored in the safest manner possible while maintaining the building’s original acoustics.”
The evening will include a cocktail hour (one complimentary beverage (beer/wine) and a Taste of Putnam, featuring scrumptious hors d’oeuvres from our town’s fine restaurants. The night continues with performances by many fabulous artists, live and silent auctions, raffles, and desert.
The entire community is coming together in this effort to raise money to help with the necessary repairs at The Bradley Playhouse so they may be up and running again soon! The Bradley has been a staple in Putnam for as long as we all can remember… it is now our time to come together in support of this local institution.
$50 per person includes performances, one complimentary beer or wine, the taste of Putnam, dessert, auctions, fun and friends and ALL proceeds benefit The Bradley Playhouse so they can repair their ceiling. Only 100 tickets available. Call The Complex at 963-7170 for tickets.

soccer
reaches
SENE finals
By Ron P. Coderre
The Marianapolis boys and girls soccer teams enjoying banner seasons reached the finals of the SENE Prep School Council championships. The teams both ranked Number 1, hosted the finals and semifinals on the Thompson campus Nov. 6 and 8.
Golden Knight
Men Win Title
After playing a scoreless first half in the championship game against 3rd ranked Rocky Hill of Rhode Island, the Marianapolis Golden Knights paced by the boots of Jerimiah Knipe and the assists of Drew Collari came from a 1-0 deficit to beat the visitors 2-1. Knipe had both goals for the 19-4-2 winners. His scores came off of assists from Collari. Brian Barrette was immense in the net for Coach Eric Gustavson, recording five saves, many of the spectacular version.
Earlier in the week the Knights reached the finals by taking the measure of 5th ranked St. Andrew’s 4-1. The winners were paced by Knipe who recorded two goals and John Gialanella who also had a pair of scores. Barrette once again was strong in the net.
Lady Knights
Drop Heartbreaker
For the second season in a row Wheeler School came to Thompson and spoiled the bid of the Marianapolis women’s soccer team to capture the SENE Prep School Council championship. The visitors from Rhode Island won in a nail biter 2-1.
Following a scoreless first half Wheeler School surprised for two quick goals, which would eventually prove to be the difference in the title game. Marianapolis responded with a goal from Jenna Tetreau, but it was too little too late.
The Marianapolis ladies reached the finals with a 2-0 win over 4th ranked Rocky Hill of Rhode Island. The team moved to the title game on the stellar net minding of goalie Nicole Viselli who posted her 10th shutout of the season.
The 17-4 Lady Knights had goals from Tetreau and Caroline Soucy, who tallied her 32nd goal of the season in the semifinal contest.
