SUMMARY:Pregnancy & Child Loss Remembrance Walk
DESCRIPTION:Join us for a free one-mile walk to honor and remember babies and children gone too soon.\nThis event is a safe space for families to grieve\, remember\, and connect with others who’ve experienced pregnancy or child loss. Along the path\, participants will see their baby or child’s name written on a sign\, hear their name spoken aloud\, and take part in a gentle bubble release to close the walk. \nWhy we walk:\nOne in four pregnancies ends in miscarriage or stillbirth. Despite how common it is\, so many families suffer in silence. Our goal is to raise awareness and provide support to grieving families who may feel isolated and overwhelmed in their loss.\nWhether you’ve lost a child yourself or want to support someone who has\, you are welcome here. \nCost:\nFree to attend. All ages welcome. \nPlease sign up here: https://babewc.org/walk/

SUMMARY:CCHS Fine Arts presents Six: The Musical
DESCRIPTION:“Divorced. Beheaded. Died. Divorced. Beheaded. Survived.” \nSix is a modern retelling of the lives of Henry VIII’s six wives: Catherine of Aragon\, Anne Boleyn\, Jane Seymour\, Anna of Cleves\, Katherine Howard\, and Catherine Parr. They have come together as a band to stage a pop concert and invite the audience to hear their stories. They cannot decide who should be the lead singer\, so they initiate a competition\, or singing battle\, to see who suffered the most as Queen. Each wife believes they had it toughest and they belittle each other’s attempts to prove their hardship. However\, they become frustrated that their place in history is defined by one man. Together\, they decide to pick up the pen and the microphone\, and re-write their own stories. They are more than a rhyme\, more than a wife\, and much more than one King could handle. \nThe show is recommended for ages 13 & up. \nPublic Sales start: Monday\, April 20\, 2026 10:00 AM ET
