SUMMARY:Community Fitness: Tai Chi & Qigong at the River
DESCRIPTION:Offered by Immortal Tree Qigong. Each hour-long Tai Chi & Qigong session will start with breathing exercises\, warm up\, and gentle movements. You will then be guided through flowing movements that are part of the Tai Chi 24 form mixed with short standing meditations. We will end with a slightly longer guided standing (or sitting) meditation. This should leave a few minutes to answer questions or discuss any insights. Qigong and Tai Chi don’t require any special skills (other than breathing) or equipment (other than your body).

SUMMARY:Nurses Making History – Greater Dayton Edititon
DESCRIPTION:As part of National Nurses Week and the America 250 commemoration\, Nurses Making History: Greater Dayton Edition invites the community to recognize the people who care for us in our most vulnerable moments—and to reflect on the long history of caregiving in our region. This two-hour evening gathering brings together nurses\, community members\, and local partners in a historic setting to celebrate the evolution of nursing from early frontier caregiving to today’s highly skilled\, technology-driven practice. The evening will include food\, drinks\, music\, recognition of local nurses nominated by their peers and families\, and a storytelling panel. The event is designed first and foremost as a welcoming space for nurses—especially those currently working in hospitals and community settings—to connect\, reflect\, and be recognized. At the same time\, it is open to anyone who wants to celebrate nurses: family members\, colleagues\, patients\, and community supporters. Tickets are $10 and include food and drinks. Space is limited.

SUMMARY:DLCA Performance: Olympus – The Greek Rock Musical
DESCRIPTION:DLCA PERFORMANCE: OLYMPUS – THE GREEK ROCK MUSICAL is a laugh-out-loud rock musical where ancient myths meet modern mischief! The Greek gods\, tired of their immortal routines\, spark a competition to meddle with mortals and prove who’s the greatest Greek god of all time. When a group of modern-day cousins set off on a hike to “Olympus Overlook\,” they have no idea they’re about to be tested by ancient deities. With catchy songs\, heartfelt moments\, and plenty of laughs\, OLYMPUS is a mythic adventure about family\, connection\, and discovering that the real view from the top is the one you share together. \nThere are three performances for this show: Friday evening\, Saturday matinee\, and Saturday evening.
