Friday – June 3 

Spin with Us – Hearts on Fiber

June 3 @ 3:00 p.m.

We love spinning! We also love the company while spinning. So let’s make a group. Bring your spinning wheel, or drop spindle, or whatever you have to spin with and join us. It’s free, it’s relaxing, and it’s a great way to end your week! We welcome spinners of all experience levels and are enthusiastic about refining our technique together! This event is free and occurs every Friday and is usually outside the weather permitting.

Event Website: https://runsignup.com/Race/NC/Davidson/MindfulMiles5kand10K

Are you ready to have some fun? Come out and support access to mental health in the Lake Norman area and have some fun while doing it!

Two great opportunities to come out and have fun! First, a timed 10K/5K run/walk, and second a color fun run for all ages!  Feeling strong and want to participate in both? Excellent!  The events are staggered so runners can complete the 10K/5K and join in the fun of the color fun run.

  • 10K/5K – Start time 8:00 a.m.
  • Color fun run– Start time 9:30 a.m.

Please register for the combined event if you want to participate in both. Families young and old are welcome and encouraged to participate!

What’s a color fun run? – Color fun run participants will run or walk a short course (less than a mile) in a race provided white T-shirt.  Volunteers throw color powder at the runners/walkers as they go by, and by the end of the run participants are covered in colors!  All color fun run participants will be provided with a white colored T-shirt and sunglasses for the color fun run.

 

Rally/Vigil Against Gun Violence

June 5 @ 5:00 p.m.

Town Green

Since 2015, the first Friday in June has been designated as National Gun Violence Awareness Day (read about its origins here). The following two days have become known as Wear Orange Weekend. The shootings in Buffalo on May 17, those in Uvalde on May 27–and the macabre coincidence of the NRA convention taking place this very minute in Houston–make vigorous and sustained action more necessary than ever.

 

Monday – June 6

Davidson Rotary Club Meeting

June 6 @ 12:00 p.m.

North Harbor Club 

Meetings are held the first, second, and third Mondays of the month – except federal holidays. Visitors welcome.

Wednesday – June 8

Secret Society of Crafters – Hearts on Fiber

June 8 @ 10:00 a.m.

208 South Main Street

Crafting is more fun with other people, which is why we created the “Secret” Society of Crafters. The title says “secret,” but we’re a not-so-secret, not-so-exclusive group who meets to stitch, craft, crochet, knit, sit and talk. We may or may not talk about knitting, yarn bombing, hand dying, or the latest stitch. We may even talk about world domination. You won’t know unless you come. Connect with crafters in the area, find the motivation to pick up that project again, and benefit from the wisdom of a passionate crafting group. The “Secret” Society of Crafters meets outside the store every Wednesday and Sunday at 10:00 a.m. weather permitting. We hope to see you there!

 

S.U.M.M.E.R. Book Club (Short, Uplifting, Mildly Madcap, Easy Reads)

June 8 @ 11:00  a.m. – 12:00 p.m.

Davidson Branch Library – Community Room

The club will meet the second Wednesday in June, July, and August. The books are: The Last Chance Library by Freya Sampson (June 8), The Bookish Life of Nina Hill by Abbi Waxman ( July 13), and The Lido by Libby Page (August 10).

Are you an older teenager or younger adult? Do you like crafting? Do you have a project that you want to work on but never can find the right time? Does this describe you or someone you know? We wanted to provide a space and time for young adult crafters to work on a project with people who share a common interest. Want more info & updates? Follow us on Snapchat @heartsonfiber for more information.
