SUMMARY:VIRTUAL AUTHOR TALK: Nurturing Future Generations: Stories from the Heart of Grandfatherhood with Ted Page
DESCRIPTION:REGISTER FOR LIVE EVENT HERE: https://libraryc.org/whitinglibrary/162547/register \nWATCH RECORDING AFTER EVENT HERE: https://libraryc.org/whitinglibrary/archive \n  \nJoin us on June 18th at 2 PM in virtual conversation with storyteller and popular blogger Ted Page as we chat about his book Good Grandpa: Stories from the Heart of Grandfatherhood. This heartfelt book highlights his journey to bring together the stories and wisdom of grandfathers from all walks of life—all with a mission to nurture the next great generation. \nWhen author Ted Page found out he was going to be a grandpa\, he did a web search to learn more about the experience in store for him\, but all he could find were references to the movie Bad Grandpa. He couldn’t help but wonder\, “Where are the good ones?” Page started a blog\, GoodGrandpa.com\, and set out to talk with grandfathers across a diverse spectrum. This included an NFL pro athlete\, a priest\, a rabbi\, an imam\, newsman Tom Brokaw\, comedy legend John Cleese\, Chinese and Indians\, physicians adapting to disability\, an air force general\, a Vietnam combat vet\, and many more—plus his Aunt Lois and the Dalai Lama\, because why not? \nAlong the way\, Page delved into family histories—his own and those of the grandpas he interviewed—to reveal fascinating stories and lessons for living a good life. In every conversation he asked grandpas for their number one most important piece of wisdom—one thing that could help our grandchildren grow to become the greatest generation of all time. Would the collective wisdom Page gathered turn out to be one singular idea\, or a constellation of north stars that illuminate a path toward a better future? A unified and unforgettable picture does in fact emerge. \nGood Grandpa is inspiring\, uplifting\, evocative\, and filled with genuine emotion. It is a recipe of hope for a divided America\, and the book that will be on every grandparent’s reading list. \nRegister today and find out why Ted Page says “our greatest generation is to come.” \nAbout the Author: \nTed Page is a storyteller and performer. He is the author of Good Grandpa: Stories from the Heart of Grandfatherhood (Regalo Press) featured on NBC’s The TODAY Show\, NPR and in Forbes Magazine. His nonfiction stories have appeared in Boston Magazine and the Boston Globe Magazine\, and his comedy screen credits include work with John Cleese and Florence Henderson. His blog for grandfathers—GoodGrandpa.com—has been featured in The New York Times. Ted’s book of true family stories\, The Willoughby Chronicles\, was published in 2017. He lives in New England and has a bunch of grandchildren.

SUMMARY:All About the 2024 Total Solar Eclipse
DESCRIPTION:The total solar eclipse of April 8\, 2024\, is significant because it will be within a day’s drive of one of the most populous regions of our planet. \nSouthern Vermont Astronomy Group (SoVerA) member Claudio Véliz will discuss why we have a moon in the first place and why we are so fortunate as to experience these events. Then\, how to prepare for the eclipse\, where to be\, and what to do if it’s cloudy will all be covered. The presentation will be graphic-rich\, with additional material for those who wish to delve deeper into the subject matter. Safe solar-filtered glasses will be handed out to in-person attendees\, complete with instructions on how to use them. \nClaudio Véliz pursues dual professions in architecture and astronomy. He has owned an award-winning architecture firm – Claudio Véliz Architect PLLC/AIA – since 1982\, designing residential\, institutional\, municipal\, retail\, and corporate facilities. In his astronomy track\, he was Co-Founder and twice President of SoVerA\, headquartered in Chester\, Vermont.
