Music Theater of Idaho presents The Addams Family
Nampa Civic Center
October 15- 17 | 7:30 pm

THE ADDAMS FAMILY, a comical feast that embraces the wackiness in every family, features an original story and it’s every father’s nightmare: Wednesday Addams, the ultimate princess of darkness, has grown up and fallen in love with a sweet, smart young man from a respectable family – a man her parents have never met. And if that wasn’t upsetting enough, Wednesday confides in her father and begs him not to tell her mother. Now, Gomez Addams must do something he’s never done before – keep a secret from his beloved wife, Morticia. Everything will change for the whole family on the fateful night they host a dinner for Wednesday’s “normal” boyfriend and his parents.

Ghouls and Boos of even the sweetest nature want to get into the Halloween spirit, just maybe without the spooky parts! Come for the stories and songs and stay after to learn how to be a storyteller, and create a mini Jack-o-Character. Kids will be encouraged to create a story for their own pumpkin creations. Tricks and treats will be had by all, and you won’t want to miss all the surprises!

Somewhere between the sleepless nights, endless responsibilities, and taking care of everyone else’s needs above your own…you may have lost touch with you.

Motherhood is a chaotically beautiful journey, isn’t it? I would know, I’ve got two daughters (ages 6 and 2) and the postpartum season had almost taken me out…until I started feeling like myself again.

If you have felt like you’ve lost yourself in motherhood, think that you’re “just a mom”, and haven’t felt like yourself in awhile, then this in-person workshop is for you.

Through meaningful conversation, reflection, connection, and fun activities, in this 90-minute workshop, we’ll create space to:
*Explore and discover this new version of who you are becoming
*Identify what you are passionate about and what you value
*Feel validated and supported in your journey of motherhood alongside other women in the community
*Make tangible, easy, and fun steps toward becoming you again

Come as you are. Leave feeling a little more like YOU.
Here’s to Becoming You Again!

RSVP on the website!

Eagle Fall Crawl: One Week to Shop, Play and Connect

Eagle Magazine turns more than 20 years of community connection into a weeklong celebration, October 12–18.

For more than two decades, Eagle Magazine has told the stories of the people and businesses that make Eagle feel like home. Now, that connection is moving beyond the pages and into experiences that bring the community together in person.

Catwalk in Cabernet returns for its second year this September, and October brings back another growing tradition: Eagle Fall Crawl, happening October 12–18.

Fall Crawl was created around a simple idea: give people a reason to explore Eagle, support local businesses and spend time together.

Throughout the week, participating businesses will offer specials and activities. Eight-foot-tall inflatable Fall Crawl pumpkins will mark participating locations around town.

At the center of the week will be Heritage Park, where the gazebo becomes the Crawl Hearth Monday through Friday from 3–7 p.m. Neighbors can play board games, read, enjoy local art or simply sit for a while.

Visitors can get into the Halloween spirit early with the Crawl Con cosplay contest. Dress in an autumn or Halloween-inspired look, take a photo at the Fall Crawl backdrop and compete for one of three winning spots announced on the final day.

Of course, shopping local remains at the heart of Fall Crawl.

Visit at least three participating businesses, save your receipts and submit them to be entered for prizes.

Saturday brings the grand finale downtown, with participating businesses creating their own experiences, music filling the area and Eagle Magazine handing out hot chocolate as a thank-you to the community.

Then Sunday slows things down with a family-focused farewell featuring games, hot dogs and prizes for those who participated throughout the week.

Eagle Fall Crawl is an invitation to experience Eagle differently for an entire week—to discover a new business, meet the people behind the storefronts, bring the kids downtown, linger at Heritage Park and reconnect with neighbors.

After more than 20 years of bringing Eagle together through its pages, Eagle Magazine is finding new ways to bring that same community spirit to life.

October 12–18, come Crawl with us.

It’s our last day of the season, and we’re sending things off with one more full day at Green Acres. Come hang out, grab some food, listen to live music and do a little local shopping before we close out the 2026 season.
