Call number: PS3619 .T744 Z46 2012
A powerful, blazingly honest memoir: the story of an eleven-hundred-mile solo hike that broke down a young woman reeling from catastrophe—and built her back up again.
At twenty-two, Cheryl Strayed thought she had lost everything. In the wake of her mother’s death, her family scattered and her own marriage was soon destroyed. Four years later, with nothing more to lose, she made the most impulsive decision of her life: to hike the Pacific Crest Trail from the Mojave Desert through California and Oregon to Washington State—and to do it alone. She had no experience as a long-distance hiker, and the trail was little more than “an idea, vague and outlandish and full of promise.” But it was a promise of piecing back together a life that had come undone.
Strayed faces down rattlesnakes and black bears, intense heat and record snowfalls, and both the beauty and loneliness of the trail. Told with great suspense and style, sparkling with warmth and humor,Wild
vividly captures the terrors and pleasures of one young woman forging ahead against all odds on a journey that maddened, strengthened, and ultimately healed her.

Harlem Gospel Choir performance at Dennos selected as Arts Midwest’s Performing Arts Fund online Spotlight
ArtsMidwest.org’s June Spotlight is last January’s performance of the Harlem Gospel Choir’s March performance at the Dennos Museum Center’s Milliken Auditorium.
Arts Midwest awarded the Dennos a grant that was used to support the performance and helped make the workshop between the Harlem Gospel Choir and NMC Choir possible.
The sold-out concert provided what Dennos Museum Center Executive Director Gene Jenneman described as a “truly unique experience for our students.”
Kudos to Laura Mashburn
To Laura Mashburn for working so hard and going beyond the call of duty. She is such an awesome coworker. She handles a large number of people in the Dennos Museum with such ease. I can’t thank her enough, everyone at the museum is so grateful to have her on their staff.
