Demystifying Long-Term Care, Nydia Montijo (Foundation for Senior Living) June 16 9-11 AM $5 Do you have family members who are planning retirement? Is there anyone in the group you serve who, in any way, is looking after another person who no longer can care for themselves as they use to? Are your people connected with anyone who has a disability or is navigating a serious illness? If so, your people are already navigating the complexities of Long Term Care. Grasping what Long Term Care is, what resources and services are out there and which ones are actually needed, and how you pay for all of it can be overwhelming. Our workshop has been designed specifically to help demystify the process and help people understand their options. If you would like to help your members be as equipped as possible to create the best system of resources for their unique life needs, then let’s connect. FSL is here to serve the servants of our society. Backstage with Ed Sullivan, Vinnie Bruno June 21 9-11 AM $10 Ed Sullivan was the ultimate American television impresario. His television show became the most successful and longest-running variety show in U.S broadcast history. We will journey with Ed from his early days as a sports and entertainment reporter to his becoming the quintessential star maker of the 50s (Elvis) and the 60s (The Beatles). The Ed Sullivan Show included every type of entertainer from opera singers to comedians to dramatic actors. Sunday nights were incomplete without watching The Ed Sullivan Show. Television critic, David Hinckley, has been quoted as saying “The Ed Sullivan Show was by any means the last great TV show”. The Golden Age of Baseball, Ken Sorensen June 25 9-11 AM $10 Did the game really begin with Abner Doubleday? How did this game become the attraction of the world? Who was Cy Young or Babe Ruth or Lou Gehrig? What was the Black Sox Scandal? How did Jackie Robinson crash the color barrier and how did teams (his and others) respond? “Where have you gone Joe DiMaggio, our nation turns its lonely eyes to you.” The catch in the 1954 World Series changed what was possible. The Deacon and the difference that he made in the 1960 World Series. The stories go on and on! Presented by SCG favorite - Ken Sorensen. He makes history come alive! GingerTalks: Bob Dylan Untangled June 29 11 AM $10 For many of us who grew up in the 60s, Bob Dylan is a prophet. To others, he’s an aggravation to be ignored as music and discounted as a poet. This class will focus on Dylan as literature, from the free-form poetry of his book, Tarantula, and his memoir, Chronicles: Volume One, to his ballads and poetry. We’ll talk about his influences, discover what literary scholars and critics have said, and focus on several of his “poem songs,” from Hey Mr. Tambourine Man to his 2020 release, Crossing the Rubicon. Vinnie Bruno, Rock & Roll Historian, will be available for Q & A at the end of the program when he will talk about his "80th Birthday Celebration/Dylan Revisited" program coming up in December.
