SUMMARY:The Ancient Life of Washington County
DESCRIPTION:VOYAGER LECTURE SERIES\nThe Ancient Life of Washington County\nWith Jerry Harris\nTuesday\, October 29\, 7:30pm\nSocial Hour begins at 6:30pm\nThe Lorraine Boccardo Theater\nJoin fan-favorite presenter\, Jerry Harris\, for an exploration of ancient life in Washington County. Jerry Harris is the Director of Paleontology Science Department at Utah Tech University\, and is an advisor to the St. George Dinosaur Discovery Site at Johnson Farm. \nSouthwestern Utah is a desert today\, but throughout prehistory\, it’s been many different environments: under the ocean\, a “sea” of sand dunes\, a forested river floodplain\, a freshwater lake\, and more. Evidence for each of these comes from the layers of rocks preserved in Washington County. Each of these environments hosted its own unique fauna and flora\, some of which are preserved as fossils. Their stories tell us about the ever-changing nature of our backyard. \nThis year’s Voyager Lecture Series follows “The History of This Land\,” from the deep time studied in geology\, through modern concerns related to our changing environment. \nTickets $25

SUMMARY:Voyager Lecture Series: The natural function of nicotine and other botanical tales of intrigue from Kayenta’s neighborhood
DESCRIPTION:Voyager Lecture Series: The natural function of nicotine and other botanical tales of intrigue from Kayenta’s neighborhood\nLECTURES & IDEAS\nVoyager Lecture Series\nPresentation by Ian T. Baldwin\, Max Planck Institute for Chemical Ecology\, Jena Germany\, and the DI Ranch\, Motoqua\, UT\nTuesday\, May 28\, 2024 // 7:30pm\nOptional Social Hour With Like-Minded Friends\, Light Snacks And Beverages @ 6:30pm\nThe Lorraine Boccardo Theater\nHave you wondered why plants produce so many of the drugs that humans use and abuse (nicotine\, cocaine\, opium\, THC\, aspirin\, etc.)? \nThese “why” questions have been addressed in studies that lack scientific rigor\, being little more than modern versions of Rudyard Kipling’s “just-so-stories” (How leopards got their spots…).   Thanks to the long-term patient funding of the Max Planck Society in Germany\, Ian T. Baldwin and his students have developed a fire-chasing native tobacco plant\, Nicotiana attenuata\, which grows in Kayenta’s botanical ‘hood\, into a model for the rigorous scientific study of these “drug-related why questions”. For the past three decades\, we have been silencing the genes in this plant that are responsible for the plant’s amazingly diverse chemistry (it makes more than 20\,000 unique compounds) and conducting experiments at the Lytle and DI Ranches in the Beaver Dam wash to provide answers to these “drug-related why questions”. \nThis talk will provide many examples of the sophistication with which this plant uses its chemistry to solve ecological problems. The solutions that this plant has evolved matches the creativity of the human imagination. These science-grounded examples of the creativity of natural selection underscore why nature preserves\, such as those at the Lytle and DI Ranches\, are invaluable laboratories for the study of gene function. \nTickets $20

SUMMARY:Voyager Lecture Series Investing in Liquid Assets: Leveraging Sustainability Data to Combat Water Scarcity Presentation by Jennifer N. Coombs\, MSF\, CSRIC®
DESCRIPTION:LECTURES & IDEAS\nVoyager Lecture Series\nInvesting in Liquid Assets: Leveraging Sustainability Data to Combat Water Scarcity\nPresentation by Jennifer N. Coombs\, MSF\, CSRIC®\nOptional Social Hour With Like-Minded Friends\, Light Snacks And Beverages @ 6:30pm\nThe Lorraine Boccardo Theater\nIn this presentation\, we will explore the pivotal role of sustainable investing data in addressing the challenge of water scarcity. As water becomes increasingly scarce due to climate change and population growth\, it is imperative for investors and consumers alike to scrutinize the actions of companies regarding water management. We will delve into how sustainable investing can drive positive change in pinpointing adaptation\, mitigation\, and resilience strategies. By examining key metrics such as water usage efficiency\, wastewater management\, public commitments\, and innovation in water-saving technologies\, we can identify companies that are actively contributing to water conservation efforts and those that may be exacerbating the problem. Join us as we navigate the intersection of finance and environmental stewardship to secure a more water-secure future for all. \nJennifer (Jenny) Coombs is the Director of Client Success at Ethos ESG: a values-based and impact investing data and analytics software that is part of ACA Group’s ESG advisory team.

That event started a passion for birding that has followed him throughout his life. While a native of Utah\, he lived in Oregon for 22 years\, where he helped grow the Friends of the Refuge for the newly founded Tualatin River National Wildlife Refuge\, serving as both a Board member and Vice President for several years. \nPaul and his family recently moved to St. George\, Utah where he was surprised at the wildlife diversity of the area. When the small Red Cliffs Audubon chapter was on the verge of shutting down\, Paul agreed to take over so the birds and wildlife in this area didn’t lose their voice and served as president for 5 years. A manufacturing engineer by profession\, Paul loves being outdoors whether hiking\, backpacking\, canyoneering\, or leading birding field trips for the Audubon. He loves sharing the beauty and birds of Greater Zion with others. And he especially loves his wife and five children. \nThe Voyager Lecture Series is generously sponsored by Voyager Wealth Advisors\, Cache Valley Bank\, and Richardson Brothers Custom Homes. \n  \n  \nTickets $20

SUMMARY:Chautauqua: Living History -Voices From World War II
DESCRIPTION:LECTURES & IDEAS / THEATER\nChautauqua: Living History\nVoices From World War II\nFriday & Saturday\, September 29-30\, 2023 // 7:30pm\nThe Lorraine Boccardo Theater\nTheater\, History\, and Storytelling: Chautauqua is an oral storytelling tradition that brings history to life through interactive theater and compelling discussion aimed at stimulating critical thinking and increasing appreciation for complex histories. \nThis year\, we present Voices from World War II\, starring General George Patton\, favorite leader of the European troops (but often not politically correct) and Ernie Pyle\, famous war correspondent who reported from the troops in the trenches. \nErnie Pyle will be presented by scholar Doug Mishler. Doug Mishler is an independent scholar who has taught at the University of Nevada and Western Washington University. He is the author of a history of the Ringling Brothers Circus and has consulted on several public television and Chautauqua programs\, regularly appearing in Maryland and Colorado. He has studied and presented as P. T. Barnum\, Theodore Roosevelt\, William Lloyd Garrison\, Henry Ford\, Jefferson Davis\, George Wallace\, Upton Sinclair\, and Major General Robert Ross. In addition to Ernie Pyle\, he also portrays Billy Sunday\, William Clark\, Andrew Carnegie\, Edward R. Murrow\, Thomas Hart Benton\, and Nikita Khrushchev. Mishler has a Ph.D. in American cultural history from the University of Nevada\, Reno. \nErnie Pyle was an in-the-trenches correspondent who reported on the actual conditions and trials of the GI’s living under terrible conditions as opposed to the uplifting propaganda put out by the government. \nGeneral George Patton will be presented by Tim Beasely. General Patton was a swash-buckling leader on the European Front and was known for his personal regard for the troops under his command. He was always seen with high top black boots\, an infantry helmet and two silver pistols strapped to his hips. He had the capability of surpassing General Eisenhower in the European command but because of his offensive political rhetoric\, he was ultimately relegated to lower posts and finally died in a car crash at the end of the war. \nTim Beasley\, from Norfolk VA\,  has performed for over 30 years as an authentic and truly accurate General Patton\, speaking for many formal military bases and patriotic events. His very believable impersonation of “Old Blood and Guts” as a motivational speaking special guest is a highly recognized leadership icon\, combining powerful positive thinking with American pride. \nEach speaker will present a speech “in character\,” followed by an “in character” lively discussion with the audience. They will then appear as themselves\, answering questions from the audience about World War II and these historical figures from a more contemporary perspective. \nPurchase Tickets Here

He was always seen with high top black boots\, an infantry helmet and two silver pistols strapped to his hips. He had the capability of surpassing General Eisenhower in the European command but because of his offensive political rhetoric\, he was ultimately relegated to lower posts and finally died in a car crash at the end of the war. \nTim Beasley\, from Norfolk VA\,  has performed for over 30 years as an authentic and truly accurate General Patton\, speaking for many formal military bases and patriotic events. His very believable impersonation of “Old Blood and Guts” as a motivational speaking special guest is a highly recognized leadership icon\, combining powerful positive thinking with American pride. \nEach speaker will present a speech “in character\,” followed by an “in character” lively discussion with the audience. They will then appear as themselves\, answering questions from the audience about World War II and these historical figures from a more contemporary perspective. \nPurchase Tickets Here

SUMMARY:Voyager Lecture Series: James Webb Space Telescope
DESCRIPTION:The Voyager Lecture Series are evenings to inspire curiosity and wonder. Now in our sixth season\, we’ve expanded our wildly popular series to include new guest speakers who will entertain us with thoughtful and exciting stories ranging from the mysteries of pre-recorded history to mysteries of the cosmos. \nThe James Webb Space Telescope (JWST) is a space telescope which conducts infrared astronomy. As the largest optical telescope in space\, its high resolution and sensitivity allow it to view objects too old\, distant\, or faint for the Hubble Space Telescope. This will enable investigations across many fields of astronomy and cosmology\, such as observation of the first stars\, the formation of the first galaxies\, and detailed atmospheric characterization of potentially habitable exoplanets. \nThe James Webb Space Telescope was launched on 25 December 2021 on an Ariane 5 rocket from Kourou\, French Guiana\, and arrived at the Sun in January 2022. The first JWST image was released to the public via a press conference on 11 July 2022. \n  \nPurchase Tickets Here
