Mayor Evelyn Wynn-Dixon - She Weathered Her Storm
Mayor Wynn-Dixon

When the deck is stacked against you, though it may sometimes seem like the logical thing to do, you should not fold. You play the hand you’ve been dealt, all the while strategizing how to beat your opponent.

That’s exactly what Evelyn Wynn-Dixon did. Her opponent was adversity. From segregation, to great family loss and homelessness, she stayed in the game and withstood adversity.

Though she was faced with what seemed to be continual challenges, her parent’s teachings, her church and the words of Dr. King planted seeds of hope and determination within her.

Marlene Gordon - The Next Stage - My Dream
The Next Stage

The Next Stage began in the autumn of 1978...with a dream and scouting trips that began in the mid 1960's. The "next stage" was beckoning me to ride it with people of all ages to explore the wonders of the world around us. Some they might have been yearning to see, others I would reveal to them: great canyons, giant redwood forests, ghost towns, island caves and coves with abalone shells just a-sparklin' in the sun. My dream included mountain meadows, wave-splashed coastlines, sand dunes and colorful desert wildflowers, viewed from a bus, jeep, train or hot air balloon. I would offer visits to secret gardens, country places, and to forests with a thousand shades of green. Like what you see…Subscribe today!
