    REWIND: Choose Your Own Adventure Books
    Oct 8 2026

    You are walking down a path and you see a dragon blocking your way. If you want to fight the dragon, turn to page 3. If you want to talk to the dragon, turn to page 4. If you want to throw rocks at the dragon…. well, you can’t. Why would anybody want to throw rocks at a dragon? Anyway, Choose Your Own Adventure books gave us an opportunity to feel in control at an age where we didn’t have a lot of control in our day-to-day lives. Come join us as we reminisce about those wonderful adventures we had reading these gems.

  • Remembering Dolly Parton

    Remembering Dolly Parton
    Sep 10 2026
    We’re remembering Dolly Parton—one of those stars who seemed to be everywhere when we were growing up. From “9 to 5” and “Islands in the Stream” to movies, television, and a career that just kept growing, Dolly became part of the soundtrack of Generation X. This time, we’re looking back at her life, her generosity, and the legacy she leaves behind.
