Drop in tonight!

Mario “Motts” Tonelli became a national celebrity as a bruising fullback at Notre Dame and for the NFL’s Chicago Cardinals. Tonelli willingly gave up his football career and volunteered for the U.S. Army prior to World War II where he spent the entire conflict as a Japanese prisoner. With hundreds of players in the service during the war, the NFL struggled to survive until they came up with creative solutions. But the league, and Tonelli, persevered. This program chronicles Tonelli, the NFL players, and their amazing stories of determination and survival in order to return to the game they loved!

Cemeteries have evolved from ancient, informal burial sites into landscaped, public spaces, tracing a history from pre-historic graves to urban churchyards and finally, to 19th-century rural, park-like environments. Originally, the term “cemetery” stems from the Greek for “sleeping chamber,” marking a shift from hiding bodies to honoring them.

The Costume Swap is for families, friends, and individuals of all ages to exchange new and gently used costumes to ensure that everyone has access to a fantastic outfit for Halloween without breaking the bank. It is also a perfect opportunity to do our part to reduce, reuse, and upcycle. Help us to keep costumes in our community and out of the landfill by swapping and getting a new-to-you costume!

October 15 from 4-6pm, come to the swap event for something new-to-you. All sizes are welcome, from infants to adults. If you don’t have a costume to swap, don’t worry! This event is free and open to the public. Costumes are free and you don’t need to donate one to take one.
