Absolutely! I remember when my husband and I bought our home here in Lakeland. Our interest rate back in 1993 was 7.5% fixed for 30 years, with excellent credit. Back then, this rate was a very good rate, since I knew from years before, the interest rate was well above the 10% rate.
The Spring Dance Concert will offer Salome, a dramatic contemporary ballet based on the play by George Bernard Shaw. Set in Mexico in the early 1800's, the comedic piece, Cantina Don Juan-ita is about the rivalry between two town beauties over a handsome young Don. The light hearted ballet, Momentary Mingling, is bout how humans pass in and out of friendships. Finally, No Exit is a fast pace abstract contemporary dance to Michael Nyman music.
