Westville magic show planned

WESTVILLE – Christopher Bontjes has been a magician since he was a youngster. Now the Danville man wants to share his love of magic – and some of his tricks – with area youth.

He will do that at a presentation at the Westville Public Library, 233 S. State St., at 10 a.m. on Friday. The event, which will last 30 to 45 minutes, will include a magic demonstration and information on starting a local group of the Society of Young Magicians.
