Campmeetings are a religious tradition arising from the Second Great Awakening of the late 1700s and early 1800s. Today, these unique gatherings--part family and community reunion and part spiritual revival--continue with week-long gatherings at campgrounds around the state. This presentation highlights the history of Salem Campmeeting in Covington, which began in 1828. The program provides insight into how the campmeeting has evolved from a gathering of rural local farmers in the early 1800s, through the upheaval of a schism in the Methodist church and the Civil War and into a modern-day religious gathering that attracts attendees from across the country.

Comedian George Carlin once observed, “A house is just a place to keep your stuff while you go out and get more stuff.” By now, many of us have discovered (1) we have more stuff than we know what to do with, and (2) our kids and grandkids have their own stuff and don’t want ours. This class offers practical approaches to organizing, decluttering, and downsizing your stuff, based on Margareta Magnusson’s book (and the Peacock TV series) "The Gentle Art of Swedish Death Cleaning," as well as the instructor’s own experience "living the Swede life.”
