On Saturday, Jan. 4, dozens of Outer Banks residents woke up to an uncomfortably early alarm clock ring. In the wee hours of the morning, they made their way to the All Saints Episcopal Church in Kitty Hawk and stood in line for as long as three hours, patiently waiting until the doors opened at 8 a.m.

Those who got in line early were rewarded with the first pick of classes from All Saints’ popular After Dark series. Organized by a seven-person committee of church members, After Dark, now in its tenth year, is a community education program run annually from late January through February. This year, the program starts on Jan. 27 and continues through Feb. 28. A total of 75 classes are offered this year, and as of Jan. 7, 18 of them have already been filled.
