Community Calendar

Step back in time with Historian Georgena Duncan for an engaging exploration of the homes and building practices in and
around Fayetteville through the 1870s. Together,
we’ll examine the few homes that still survive,
study photographs of those long gone, and discuss the styles and materials that defined this era
of local architecture. Rather than simply reading
about the past, participants will actively compare building features, trace how housing styles
changed over time, and discover what daily life
looked like within and around these homes.
We’ll explore kitchens, outhouses, barns, and other outbuildings—imagining where families kept
their livestock, horses, and carriages, how they
stored food and furniture, and whether closets
even existed. Participants will gain insights into
how builders and homeowners adapted to their
environment, what their choices reveal about
community life, and how construction costs
shaped design. Learn from expert interpretation,
shared discussion, and the chance to connect Fayetteville’s history to what still stands today.
In the second session, participants will possibly
tour Ridge House, the oldest house in Fayetteville,
the Walker-Stone House, and the Rieff House, currently Moore’s Funeral Chapel. If there is terrible
weather or other unforeseen problems, the fallback tour will be of Headquarters House, which is
the Jonas Tebbets House. Travel to the tour sites
will be up to the student, with further information
on parking to follow

Join us for a two-part exploration into the rich history and distinct theology of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day
Saints. We’ll dive into core LDS beliefs: Jesus
Christ as our Savior, the nature of God, continuing revelation, the role of prophets, eternal
families, what the Book of Mormon is, and the
plan of salvation. We’ll explore how these beliefs shape Latter-day Saints practices and community life today.
This class will trace the Church’s origins - from
Joseph Smith’s early visions and the translation
of the Book of Mormon to the migration west
and the growth of a global faith. All participants
are welcome -- whether you’re curious, studying religion, or seeking a greater understanding
of a faith that has shaped millions of lives.

Results are quieting the spinning/negative mind for a deep relaxation and meditation which raises your vibration, improving your mood, feelings of inner peace, along with feeling centered and balanced.

The session will start with breathwork, astrology information about the Spring Equinox, and a guided meditation. After a Sound Bath; most participants sleep very peacefully as the body has experienced deep relaxation. It is also recommended to drink plenty of water after a Sound Bath to flush any released energy.
