A Promise Delivered: Ten American Heroes and the Battle to Rename Our Nation's Military Bases by Connor Williams and Ty Seidule recounts the story of the bipartisan Naming Commission, which was tasked with renaming nine U.S. military bases previously named for Confederate soldiers. The book details the commission's process of selecting ten new names, highlighting the lives of these diverse American heroes, and contrasts them with the Confederate figures they replaced, offering a powerful narrative on reclaiming American history and honoring true service.

The Barn Dance tradition lives throughout history as a way for communities to gather, revel, and move together. Join us for our very first Barn Dance open to the general public in recent memory! Enjoy a lively evening of fellowship, song, & dance, led by professional “caller” Paul Rosenberg and his band, Tamarack. From the winding “snake” to “peeling the banana,” move hand-in-hand with other Sagamore community members.
Paul Rosenberg has been leading dances throughout the northeastern United States since 1986. In recent years, he has been one of the busiest callers in North America, working over 200 dance engagements a year. He is known for his gentle but energetic, encouraging style, concise teaching, and offbeat sense of humor.
Paul gets his greatest satisfaction from enabling people who have never danced—especially the dance phobic—to not only get up and dance, but also to have a great time doing it and come back for more!
