Age Well: Aging Without Children Lecture – Champion Public Library
Join Champion Public Library for a special “Age Well” online lecture at 1:00 PM on Thursday, June 25th, on Aging Without Children — A Different Path to Fulfillment.
Nearly 1 in 5 Baby Boomers don’t have children by choice or by chance. In this Age Well lecture, join Luanne Mullin, retirement counselor and adult development expert, for a thoughtful conversation about what aging can look like without children. Explore the questions, challenges, and possibilities that come with forging your own path — from building community and planning for the future to defining your legacy and discovering what comes next. This program is free and open to adults, ages 18 and up; however, signing up is encouraged. This Zoom lecture event is sponsored by Road Scholar.
Luanne Mullin inspires and educates individuals navigating midlife and beyond, helping them discover renewed passion and purpose. Mullin facilitates post-career workshops, offers retirement counseling, and serves on boards supporting older adults. Mullin holds graduate degrees in education from Harvard University and clinical psychology from John F. Kennedy University. Mullin is a certified mediator and member of the National Association of Professional Gerontologists.

Book Club – Davis Public Library
Join others at the Davis Public Library for a monthly book club at 5:30 PM on Tuesday, June 23rd. Conversation, fellowship, and refreshments will be centered on popular book titles for adults to discuss. This month’s book, “A Witch’s Guide to Magical Innkeeping” by Sangu Mandanna, will be discussed.
Once a powerful witch, Sera Swan lost most of her magic after resurrecting her great-aunt Jasmine, befriending a mischievous talking fox, and being exiled from her Guild. Now, she reluctantly helps Jasmine run an enchanted inn in Lancashire, juggling odd guests and longing for her lost future. When Sera learns of a spell that could restore her power, Luke Larsen—a reserved magical historian—arrives and unexpectedly offers to help, despite his reluctance to get involved. As they work together, both Sera and Luke find themselves drawn into the inn’s chaos and each other’s lives. Managing the inn, seeking her magic, and evading the Guild is a challenge, but Sera soon realizes that the strange, loving family she’s built may be her greatest magic of all.
The Summer Reading Program is also supported in part by the Institute of Museum and Library Services through the Library Services and Technology Act, administered by the Oklahoma Department of Libraries.
