SUMMARY:McKinney Center: Conversations that Matter
DESCRIPTION:The McKinney Center Announces New Series “Conversations that Matter” \n“Conversations that Matter” is a new monthly on-line series from the McKinney Center. In each “Conversation” two local guests will explore their own culture and perspective\, and talk to each other about what makes them unique\, discover their similarities\, and explore their differences. They will look at where their lives might intersect personally and in the community. The goal of each “Conversation that Matters” is for guests and participants to hear real stories\, from real neighbors. \nThe first event in the series will feature Jonesborough Alderman Terry Countermine and Johnson City School Board member Michelle Treece. It will take place via Zoom on Thursday\, July 16th\, at 7 p.m. Register at mckinneycenter.com. \n\nAs a viewer\, the focus will be on a conversation from two community members who wish to have a conversation on their own personal experiences in Northeast Tennessee. Those who attend will get to watch this conversation unfold with moderation from Katelyn Yarbrough and Michelle Treece. \n\nThis monthly series is inspired by the Diversity & Inclusion Subcommittee at the McKinney Center’s desire to highlight the experiences of all voices in Washington County\, Tennessee\, with an intention to include marginalized groups. By showcasing these conversations\, the Diversity & Inclusion committee hopes to open doors to new ideas and perspectives amongst our very own neighbors. Questions such as\, “What was your experience in grade-school and how did that make you feel?” or\, “have you experienced exclusion or racism?” For many of us the answers are different and unique. The McKinney Center believes it is time to talk about our experiences and share them. \n\nThere is value in uplifting these stories so that we may learn from one another. Then\, after hearing from one another our moderators and guest conversationalists will give insight on how to move forward. For more information about this new series\, please contact Skye McFarland at 423.753.5097.

SUMMARY:NOLI: Map Reading & Compass Class
DESCRIPTION:Do your adventures take you to remote areas where all you have is your own wits and training to rely on? Or do you prefer to keep your adventures closer to home by heading to your favorite local trail? In either case wilderness navigation skills will greatly enrich your experience by giving you the confidence to successfully head into the backcountry and return home safely. Join former Army Infantry officer Scott Fisher learning the art of how to read a topo map and use a compass to successfully navigate in the wild. The first part of this comprehensive and fun hands-on class will be spent in a classroom setting reviewing the features of a map and compass before progressing to terrain association\, navigational techniques and route selection. After completing the classroom portion we will move outside to practice your new skills and then cap it off with a mild 1 mile hike to a beautiful overlook where you get to apply all that you’ve learned. Maps and compasses provided. No experience necessary. Ages 12+.For more information and to register go to https://bookeo.com/nolilearn?devent=41568HHAUWM16EF50506FE_2020-07-19_zDo7wVxLQiSa.\nMap & Compass feedback: “Thoroughly enjoyed your Map Reading/Land Navigation class; great content & dynamic presentation style!

These quilts each come with their own stories. This exhibit will include a variety of quilt styles\, including Crazy\, Friendship\, Irish Chain\, and Floral Pattern. One Friendship quilt even includes a personal poem on the quilt\, created for a local businessman in 1860.

She has served on the Board of Directors of American Quilt Study Group and the Alliance for American Quilts. In 2009\, she was inducted into the Quilters Hall of Fame. Waldvogel says\, “Quilts documented for the Quilts of Tennessee survey in Jonesborough in the 1980s were some of the most interesting due to the diversity of their stories and styles. I am excited to delve into the stories of these quilts from the Heritage Alliance collection.” \n\nBetween July 17th and August 7th be sure to pay close attention to both the McKinney Center and the Heritage Alliance’s social media as they release educational resources in companionship with this exhibit.

Brinkley–America’s most brazen young con man–arrived in the tiny town of Milford\, Kansas. He set up a medical practice and introduced an outlandish surgical method using goat glands to restore the fading virility of local farmers. \nIt was all nonsense\, of course\, but thousands of paying customers quickly turned “Dr.” Brinkley into America’s richest and most famous surgeon. His notoriety captured the attention of the great quackbuster Morris Fishbein\, who vowed to put the country’s “most daring and dangerous” charlatan out of business. \nTheir cat-and-mouse game lasted throughout the 1920s and ’30s\, but despite Fishbein’s efforts Brinkley prospered wildly. When he ran for governor of Kansas\, he invented campaigning techniques still used in modern politics. Thumbing his nose at American regulators\, he built the world’s most powerful radio transmitter just across the Rio Grande to offer sundry cures\, and killed or maimed patients by the score\, yet his warped genius produced innovations in broadcasting that endure to this day. By introducing country music and blues to the nation\, Brinkley also became a seminal force in rock ’n’ roll. In short\, he is the most creative criminal this country has ever produced. \nCulminating in a decisive courtroom confrontation that pit Brinkley against his nemesis Fishbein\, Charlatan is a marvelous portrait of a boundlessly audacious rogue on the loose in an America that was ripe for the bamboozling. \nAbout Pope Brock\nPope Brock is the author of the critically acclaimed Indiana Gothic: A Story of Adultery and Murder in an American Family\, the story of his great-grandfather’s murder in 1908\, and Charlatan: America’s Most Dangerous Huckster\, the Man Who Pursued Him\, and the Age of Flimflam. \nBrock has written for numerous publications\, including Rolling Stone\, Esquire\, GQ\, and the London Sunday Times Magazine. \nHe lives in upstate New York with his twin daughters\, Molly and Hannah.
