Because of its remarkable complexity and controversial nature, many individuals remain uninformed or confused. This luncheon aims to dispel any myths you’ve been taught about our current healthcare system and clarify what our options are moving forward. Our three speakers have a lot to share!   Guinn Unger got involved with the ColoradoCare Amendment 69 campaign in 2016, and served as the regional coordinator for southwest Colorado. He served as co-chair for the Health Care and Senior Issues committee of Indivisible Durango. He was also elected to the Board of Directors for the La Plata Electric Association (LPEA) in 2017, and ran (unsuccessfully) for the Colorado state Senate District 6 seat in 2018.   Monique DiGiorgio is the Executive Director of Local First here in Durango. Monique was instrumental in founding the Chama Peak Land Alliance, a nonprofit organization of private land stewards in Durango’s backyard conserving open space, clean water, and abundant wildlife.    James Iacino is running for Scott Tipton’s seat as our United States Representative for Colorado’s 3rd Congressional District. His three key issues are economic mobility, affordable healthcare, and preserving public lands. He is the CEO of Seattle Fish Company, which has afforded him much success and publicity for his responsible sourcing and entrepreneurialism.    TICKETS: $20, scholarships available. Block tickets available at the door for $171 - that’s only $19 per lunch!   RSVP by emailing TheClubDems@gmail.com before February 27

A graduate of the Berklee School of Music, Donny McCaslin began playing the saxophone during his early childhood years. While perhaps best recognized for his contributions to Blackstar, David Bowie's final studio album, McCaslin's comprehensive approach to jazz as a popular American music genre is vast and mesmerizing. Throughout his extensive career his repertoire has integrated the full range of sounds that a tenor sax can produce: from funky fusion to mainstream modern, to laid-back balmy ballads, all flavored with his own experimental style.

An incomprehensible event: every person in the audience of a high school play falls unconscious—every person but one. Using interviews with witnesses, loved ones, first responders, and the investigators pursuing the case, a theatre ensemble brings the story of the strange event to life, documentary-style.

Unnerving, exhilarating, and wildly inventive, you’ve never walked into anything quite like Trap.

Bloating, diarrhea/constipation, abdominal pain, belching, excess gas, fatigue, low energy, brain fog, headaches, poor immune function, thyroid issues, autoimmunity, skin issues like eczema, and joint pain can be symptoms of hidden food sensitivities. Unlike IgE mediated food allergies - think peanut allergy that instantly causes your throat to swell up, IgG and IgA mediated food sensitivities result in delayed and subtle responses that can be hard to detect. By testing for antibodies to certain foods and then eliminating them from the diet, many experience relief from their symptoms.    Why Group Visits: They allow for more in depth education and discussion about specific health topics and are an affordable option for anyone looking for a targeted treatment.    Group Visit Format: Prior to meeting, please stop by Olea Wellness Center to pick up a test kit that contains everything you will need to collect a sample. You will use an auto-lancet to prick your finger to collect a few spots of blood on a card. A paid shipping envelope will be provided to return the test sample to US Biotek. In 5-10 business days, the results will be provided to Dr. Maly. Each participant will receive a 15-minute consult over the phone to review results. During the 1-hr group visit, there will be discussion about the science behind food sensitivities, how to properly do an elimination diet and create an action plan to heal the gut lining.   *Group visits require a minimum of 6 participants and maximum of 10*   COST: Test Kit $159.00 + Group Visit Consult: $125 (may be paid for with HSA/FSA dollars & does not include supplements)

Dr. Conway will give an illustrated talk using many photos from his research and publications on the honeypot ant.   This ant species is very unusual in that certain workers, called repletes, develop greatly swollen, grape-size gasters when other colony workers collect and feed them plant nectar. The repletes spend their entire lives imprisoned in the nest hanging from the ceilings of specially-constructed large dome-shaped chambers and regurgitate their stored “honey” to feed the other colony members in times of food scarcity. Thus, this species stores “honey” in living sisters that sacrifice their lives for the good of the colony.

Enjoy a night of Bluegrass with Head for the Hills with special guest The Sweet Lillies   $15/$18/18+   Tickets available at Animas City Theatre, Animas Trading Company, and online at www.animascitytheatre.com Standing room only on dance floor, Limited seating in Balcony   HEAD FOR THE HILLS - BIO  Head for the Hills--Adam Kinghorn, Joe Lessard, Matt Loewen--come out swinging and invigorated with fresh sounds on their latest EP, Say Your Mind. Recorded at Swingfingers Studios in Fort Collins (Colorado), the band brought a larger band than ever before, including drummer Darren Garvey of Elephant Revival, Vocalist Kim Dawson, Dobroist Todd Livingston, a horn section and more. The material reflects both the turbulent social rhythms of our current era and more timeless moments of joy, growth, and change.   Like a painter that starts in acrylic and graduates to oils, Head for the Hills is deeper and richer in their 15th year as a band, with a wider palette of sonic textures at their disposal. Dorm room jam sessions have turned into a decade plus on the road--from humble coffee shops to theaters, festivals, roadhouses and clubs all across the country. Over time those sounds and influences have crept more and more into the bluegrass beginnings of the band, morphing into the seasoned eclecticism of Say Your Mind. The new songs are quinnessential Head for the Hills; genre-stradling, lyrically deep, and danceable, with a crew of collaborators bringing the best of Colorado acoustic, roots, and soul music together.   Head for the Hills numerous festival appearances include notables Telluride Bluegrass Festival, High Sierra Music Festival, South by Southwest, FloydFest, RockyGrass, DelFest, Summer Camp Music Festival, WinterWonderGrass Festival, Blue Ox Music Festival, Northwest String Summit, Strawberry Music Festival, Chicago Bluegrass & Blues Festival, Folk Alliance, Grandoozy and many more. The band charted on the CMJ Top 200 twice, has been featured on NPR Ideastream and eTown, and was awarded Best Bluegrass in Colorado four times via Denver’s Westword Magazine.   The Sweet Lillies   The Sweet Lillies’ high-energy, melodic tunes have quickly captured the hearts of fans in Colorado and beyond. The band credits its appeal to the original and compelling songwriting of three people who share an unwavering commitment to life on the road. The magnetic combination of Julie Gussaroff on the upright bass, Becca Bisque on the viola, and Dustin Rohleder on guitar gives the band a rare and alluring sound. As testament to their appeal, The Sweet Lillies have shared the stage with the likes of Peter Rowan, George Porter Jr., Steve Kimock, Vince Herman of Leftover Salmon, Kyle Hollingsworth and Jason Hann of The String Cheese Incident, Andy Hall of The Infamous String Dusters, Jeff Austin, and Bri

Hortense yearns for a new life away from rural Jamaica, Gilbert dreams of becoming a lawyer, and Queenie longs to escape her Lincolnshire roots. Hope and humanity meet stubborn reality as the play traces the tangled history of Jamaica and the UK.   A company of 40 actors take to the stage of the National Theatre in this timely and moving story.   Small Island is BBFC rated 15 due to use of strong language. As part of depicting the experience of Jamaican immigrants to Britain after the Second World War, at times characters in the play use language which is racially offensive.
