WQPT-QUAD CITIES PBS AND DAVENPORT JAYCEES ANNOUNCE PLANS FOR BREW HA HA 2014

By Rick Martin

DAVENPORT, IOWA -The Davenport Jaycees, a young professionals service organization, and WQPT-Quad Cities PBS, a public media service of Western Illinois University are teaming up for the Quad City Classic - Brew Ha Ha in September.

As part of a collaborative agreement, operations of Brew Ha Ha will transfer to the Davenport Jaycees immediately. Brew Ha Ha has been hosted by WQPT since 2000 to raise funds for children's programming.

"We have been looking to expand our educational outreach activities and turning Brew Ha Ha over to the Jaycees allows us to focus on our mission of educational outreach for children and families," WQPT Chief Development Officer Jamie Lange said. "The Davenport Jaycees is a well-respected, established non-profit organization who shares our mission of education and supporting children and families. The partnership is ideal."

Brew Ha Ha proceeds will continue to benefit WQPT's children's program and will expand to include other charitable initiatives of the Jaycees.

"Brew Ha Ha is a wonderful community event," Davenport Jaycees President April Boyer said. Expanding its reach under our direction will give us an opportunity to continue supporting WQPT but also other great community organizations that fit within the Jaycees mission."

"As a young professional group that is focused on service and growing our leadership skills, this event and its mission fits us well," Davenport Jaycees President April Boyer said. "We are honored that WQPT asked to partner with us and it demonstrates the value of young leadership who want to support their communities."

The partnership between the two organizations will continue through other projects as well.

"As a result of this partnership, the Davenport Jaycees will help WQPT invest in a new children's project to be held in the spring 2015 so it's really exciting," said Boyer.

About Brew Ha Ha: Brew Ha Ha, an annual tradition in the Quad Cities will be held Saturday, September 20 from 1:00-5:00 p.m. in LeClaire Park. The tasting event features more than 200 beers and includes a Cabot cheese tasting. The event also includes live music, comedy and games.

Tickets will be available in July at davenportjaycees.com. Tickets are $30 in advance/$35 at the gate. Attendees are encouraged to purchase tickets in advance as limited tickets are available as this event has sold out in the past.

About the Jaycees: The Davenport Jaycees aim to build personal and professional relationships by work together on projects to strengthen and grow the Quad-Cities community. Currently celebrating their 80th year, the Davenport chapter is one of the oldest chapters in the state of Iowa and has grown to include young professionals from both sides of the Mississippi River. They pride themselves on blending social opportunities with service - like planning the annual Bridal Expo that raises funds for charitable initiatives.

End May with Stimulating Rock Island Library Programs on Shakespeare, D-Day Anniversary

By Lisa Lockheart

Rock Island, IL: The Rock Island Public Library is the place to begin a search for stimulating ideas, cultural offerings and understanding history. Get started with two free programs at the Main Library in May:

 

Tuesday, May 27, Shakespeare's A Midsummer Night's Dream, 6:30 pm. The Waldorf Theatre Company, a professional touring company sponsored by The Waldorf College Theatre Department in Forest City, Iowa, proudly presents a 45 minute version of Shakespeare's A Midsummer Night's Dream. Waldorf College prides itself on "original practices" from Shakespeare's time, and will present a fast-moving, fun-filled play full of mistaken identities, fairies, and puppets.

Saturday, May 31, The Men of the Normandy Invasion, 2:00 pm. Just in time for the 70th anniversary of D-Day, historian, author and guide Robert Mueller, of French Battlefields, will present the story of the American forces' seaborne and airborne invasion of Normandy, France, on June 6, 1944. His presentation details the critical roles of the 82nd and 101st Airborne Divisions who parachuted into France shortly after midnight and of the 1st, 4th, and 29th Infantry Divisions which landed in the early morning hours of June 6, 1944. The lecture describes the invasion through the actions of individual soldiers; some of whom returned home and some who didn't. His presentation includes clearly drawn maps of the battlefield terrain, along with historic and contemporary photographs of battle sites. The presentation ends with a visit to Normandy American Cemetery, site of the bloodiest fighting and now a fitting tribute to the sacrifices of American troops at D-Day.

Retirement brought Robert Mueller the opportunity to visit and study the battlefields of Europe. After five years of on-site research, he completed Fields of War: Fifty Key Battlefields in France and Belgium, which has received four national book awards including a Bronze Medal from the Military Writers Society of America. His second book, Fields of War: Battle of Normandy, launches a series of visitors' guides describing sights and individuals of the Second World War's European battlefields. This volume presents the Allied assault to liberate France from German occupation starting with the invasion of the Normandy coast to the climactic Battle of the Falaise Pocket and eventual liberation of Paris.

Both events are in the 2nd floor Community Room of the Main Library, 401 19th Street, Rock Island. For more events at Rock Island Public Libraries, visit the library website at www.rockislandlibrary.org, follow the library on Facebook or Twitter, or call 309-732-READ (7323)

Founded in 1872, the Rock Island Public Library serves the area through three locations, which include the Main, 30/31 and Southwest Branches, community outreach efforts, and online opportunities that provide resources to enhance personal achievement and stimulate the imagination.
