Reality @ Your Library Film Series:
Screening of “The Way We Get By”
On call 24 hours a day for the past five years, a group of senior citizens has made history by greeting nearly 800,000 American troops at a tiny airport in Bangor, Maine. The Way We Get By is an intimate look at three of these greeters as they confront the universal losses that come with aging and rediscover their reason for living. Bill Knight, Jerry Mundy and Joan Gaudet find the strength to overcome their personal battles and transform their lives through service. This inspirational and surprising story shatters the stereotypes of today’s senior citizens as the greeters redefine the meaning of community.
Thursday, August 12, 6:30 p.m.
CONCERT BY THE CREEK
featuring Mike Doughty
Mike Doughty may well be best known as the former frontman of Soul Coughing, but he has come a long way since they broke up in 2000. He released an acclaimed solo album, Golden Delicious, in 2008, and is touring behind a new CD, Sad Man Happy Man. He makes albums that simmer with verbal wit, and Sad Man Happy Man is no exception, with its songs about everything from relationship bust-ups to his astute observations about the American economy. Held at Grater Park in Ephrata.
Monday, September 13, 6:30 p.m.
