September 18, 2010: River City Ramblers Volksmarch
Established in 2000 the River City Ramblers are the Evansville Volkssport club and members of the Indiana Volkssport Association (I.N.V.A.) and the American Volkssport Association (A.V.A.). I.N.V.A. has 14 clubs throughout the state of Indiana. Local clubs help promote volkssporting by sponsoring noncompetitive sports events in their area. The club members select a trail for safety, scenic interest, historic areas, natural beauty and walkability. They then invite everyone to come enjoy a walk on a weekend, or a weekday evening. Most walks take people two hours to stroll a 10K trail. Some people like to run or jog, others enjoy taking a leisurely pace stopping to sightsee, picnic or shop.

September 24-26, 2010: The Gibson County Theatre Company Presents " The One That Got Away."
Written by Eddie McPherson and directed by Jessie Dyer.
A headline in the state newspaper reads, “Annual Fishing Tournament Expecting Record Number of Female Participants.” This news is great for women who love the sport of fishing. It’s even better news for men who love the sport of “picking up chicks”. When Brad and his buddies hear the news, they pack their backpacks and head to Weiss Lake where the tournament is being held. Because the guys know that the women at the tournament will be impressed with men who exude expert fishing knowledge, they conduct research by picking up a couple of fishing magazines at the local Seven Eleven. They figure by the time the “chicks” find out the men know nothing about fishing they have already won them over with their “charm and animal magnetism.” But when one of the men's inept cousin tags along unintentionally and then accidentally spills the beans to the women about the mens intentions, the weekend becomes more than anyone bargained for. And then Brad’s fiancee shows up. The women have a plan to put the ego-filled fellows in their place – – and it’s not going to be pretty
The production will be at the Princeton Country Club. Tickets are $15 per person. Hors d’oeuvres will be served and a cash bar will be available
