Circle of Ash Haunted Attraction and Scream Park
<p>Shhh… Did you hear that??? Circle of Ash, the haunted attraction that you have known and loved for nearly two decades, returns to the Linn County Fairgrounds, just ten minutes north of Marion! A true Scream Park Experience, Circle of Ash delivers three scary haunted house attractions, three incredible rides, an Escape Room, and a Murder Mystery Event, plus onsite concessions; Circle of Ash is the destination for your haunted Halloween fun! Don’t believe us? Best Things Iowa rated Circle of Ash as the #1 Haunted Attraction in the state!</p><p><em><u>Included in your ticket price (Unlimited re-entry on any given night to any/all of these attractions)</u></em><u>:</u></p><p><strong>Circle of Ash</strong> – Back and better than ever in 2018 is the modern twist on the classic style show. Mixing elements of indoor and outdoor style haunted attractions; Circle of Ash delivers the best of both worlds. Meet Molly in the house she lives in, experience all your senses in our sensory area, find your way through the intense industrial theme, and get your medical checkups on your way to the woods in back. Areas of TOTAL DARKNESS await, and a lot of beautiful, scary sets where monsters can hide. Also, don’t forget Claustrophobia and the Vortex Tunnel. Are you brave enough to go first?</p><p><strong>Frightmare Forest</strong> – The year was 2009. We killed and buried Frightmare Forest, as we knew it. It just was not willing to die. For many years, Frightmare Forest would haunt our dreams. It gasped for air in passing conversations. People would ask, but we did not want to talk about such a sordid and dark past. Every year that passed seemed to give Frightmare Forest added strength - added will to survive. Three floods and a tornado have ravaged Frightmare Forest... but all evil things rise back to the surface! Frightmare Forest is back from the dead, AGAIN!</p><p>It does not look like the Frightmare Forest it used to be. This time, it is a lot rawer... dirtier and darker. Perhaps a bit more sinister. There are many natural dangers hunting in the forest. Creatures. Creatures that hide in bushes, burrow into trees, and creep along under the cover of night, pierced only by moonlight. And all of that was before *we* got involved. Can you navigate the dark? Can you make the right choices to find your way through the damp, fall night? Will you let Frightmare Forest consume a little more of your energy and soul?</p><p><strong>Pandemonium!</strong> – Everything you would expect from a bunch of clowns… our most intense attraction! An actual maze… dense fog, fast-flashing strobe lights, loud music and jackass clowns make this one tough to complete. Do not take a wrong turn; you will be lost inside forever... with a bunch of clowns!</p><p><br></p><p><em><u>Limited Availability – Additional Fees apply:</u></em><br><strong>Journey's End ($5.00 per person) </strong>- Experience your own funeral with this comedic single rider attraction. You will be placed into a coffin and hear and feel what your own funeral may be like when a discount funeral home is used!</p><p><strong>Halloween Homicide ($10.00 per team</strong>) – A murder has been committed. Become investigators, gather the clues, and solve the whodunit crime. Exclusive to Circle of Ash!</p><p><strong>Cursed Escape Room - Brand New for 2018! ($15.00 per person)</strong> – A normally gregarious resident of Central City became a recluse, and now has not been seen in three weeks. Your group enters the room to investigate when you hear the familiar “click” of a door locking behind you. You need to find another way out but what is it and how does it unlock? <em>Tickets for the escape room are only available online, not on site. </em></p><p><strong><em><u><br>Tickets:</u></em></strong></p><p>General admission tickets are just $20, and gets you into all of our included attractions for an entire evening! You can go through as many times as you dare that night!</p><p>FAST PASS admissions are $35 and are limited each night.

Drumming for Healing at Prairiewoods
<p>Feel the Creator’s rhythm inside you during a drum circle. Join facilitator Sheri Mealhouse (Hawkwoman) at Prairiewoods (120 East Boyson Road in Hiawatha) on the second and fourth Mondays of each month. In the cosmic experience, drumming touches us at a deep level and brings all creation together as a community. Especially now, when our external and internal worlds can be so polarized, communication that bears witness to creative love is very important. Drumming—and feeling the Creator’s rhythm inside of us—resonates with a variety of people. All racial, economic, denominational and other differences can disappear when a group of people share rhythm. As you prayerfully listen to other drummers in order to make music, the whole group becomes one! These drum circles take place twice a month, and you may attend one or all. No experience is necessary. You are welcome to bring your own drum or use one of ours. This drum circle will meet near the pond south of the Center if the weather is nice or in the Art Room during inclement weather. A free-will offering to the facilitator will be accepted. For more information or to register, contact Prairiewoods at www.Prairiewoods.org or 319-395-6700.</p> 2017-07-01 19:00:00 -0500

'The Coddling of the American Mind: How Good Intentions and Bad Ideas are Setting Up a Generation for Failure'
<p>Studies show that rates of anxiety, depression and suicide are increasing across college campuses nationwide, increasing tensions between professors and students. What caused these cultural changes?</p><p>Social psychologist Jonathan Haidt will answer that question by discussing the three "Great Untruths" that have crept into American childhood and education in his lecture "The Coddling of the American Mind: How Good Intentions and Bad Ideas are Setting Up a Generation for Failure," at Luther College's 2018 Farwell Distinguished Lecture.</p><p>Haidt, named one of the top-100 Global Thinkers by Foreign Policy magazine and top world thinker by Prospect magazine, will give his lecture at 7 p.m. Tuesday, Oct. 23, in the Center for Faith and Life Main Hall on the Luther campus. The lecture, open to the public with no charge for admission, is co-sponsored by the Center for Ethics and Public Engagement and Campus Programming.</p><p>Haidt is the author of four books, most recently "The Coddling of the American Mind." Working with First Amendment expert Greg Lukianoff, Haidt explores the recent culture shifts on college campuses. Through their research, Lukianoff and Haidt have discovered three "Great Untruths" that are changing the way children are raised and educated: what doesn't kill you makes you weaker; always trust your feelings; and life is a battle between good people and evil people. Haidt and Lukianoff contest that embracing these ideals affects young adults' social, emotional and intellectual development. During the lecture, Haidt will explore these trends and how they've led to a change in the culture on college campuses.</p><p align="center">A New York Times best-selling author, Haidt is the Thomas Cooley Professor of Ethical Leadership, based in the business and society program, at the New York University Stern School of Business. He is regarded as being among the world's top experts in the psychology of morality and politics. Before joining the Stern faculty in 2011, Haidt spent 16 years at the University of Virginia. He co-developed Moral Foundations theory, which attempts to explain how innate, modular foundations can influence human moral reasoning. He also co-founded <a href="http://heterodoxacademy.org/">HeterodoxAcademy.org</a>, an organization of more than 1,800 professors and students advocating for improved quality of research and education in universities "by increasing viewpoint diversity, mutual understanding and constructive disagreement."</p><p> In addition to "The Coddling of the American Mind," Haidt has had three other books published: "Flourishing: Positive Psychology and the Life Well Lived;" "The Happiness Hypothesis: Finding Modern Truth in Ancient Wisdom;" and "The Righteous Mind: Why Good People Are Divided by Politics and Religion." He frequently writes for The New York Times and The Wall Street Journal.</p><p>Haidt earned a Bachelor of Arts in philosophy from Yale University and a Ph.D. in psychology from the University of Pennsylvania.</p><p>A national liberal arts college with an enrollment of 2,005, Luther offers an academic curriculum that leads to the Bachelor of Arts degree in more than 60 majors and pre-professional programs.

Circle of Ash Haunted Attraction and Scream Park
<p>Shhh… Did you hear that??? Circle of Ash, the haunted attraction that you have known and loved for nearly two decades, returns to the Linn County Fairgrounds, just ten minutes north of Marion! A true Scream Park Experience, Circle of Ash delivers three scary haunted house attractions, three incredible rides, an Escape Room, and a Murder Mystery Event, plus onsite concessions; Circle of Ash is the destination for your haunted Halloween fun! Don’t believe us? Best Things Iowa rated Circle of Ash as the #1 Haunted Attraction in the state!</p><p><em><u>Included in your ticket price (Unlimited re-entry on any given night to any/all of these attractions)</u></em><u>:</u></p><p><strong>Circle of Ash</strong> – Back and better than ever in 2018 is the modern twist on the classic style show. Mixing elements of indoor and outdoor style haunted attractions; Circle of Ash delivers the best of both worlds. Meet Molly in the house she lives in, experience all your senses in our sensory area, find your way through the intense industrial theme, and get your medical checkups on your way to the woods in back. Areas of TOTAL DARKNESS await, and a lot of beautiful, scary sets where monsters can hide. Also, don’t forget Claustrophobia and the Vortex Tunnel. Are you brave enough to go first?</p><p><strong>Frightmare Forest</strong> – The year was 2009. We killed and buried Frightmare Forest, as we knew it. It just was not willing to die. For many years, Frightmare Forest would haunt our dreams. It gasped for air in passing conversations. People would ask, but we did not want to talk about such a sordid and dark past. Every year that passed seemed to give Frightmare Forest added strength - added will to survive. Three floods and a tornado have ravaged Frightmare Forest... but all evil things rise back to the surface! Frightmare Forest is back from the dead, AGAIN!</p><p>It does not look like the Frightmare Forest it used to be. This time, it is a lot rawer... dirtier and darker. Perhaps a bit more sinister. There are many natural dangers hunting in the forest. Creatures. Creatures that hide in bushes, burrow into trees, and creep along under the cover of night, pierced only by moonlight. And all of that was before *we* got involved. Can you navigate the dark? Can you make the right choices to find your way through the damp, fall night? Will you let Frightmare Forest consume a little more of your energy and soul?</p><p><strong>Pandemonium!</strong> – Everything you would expect from a bunch of clowns… our most intense attraction! An actual maze… dense fog, fast-flashing strobe lights, loud music and jackass clowns make this one tough to complete. Do not take a wrong turn; you will be lost inside forever... with a bunch of clowns!</p><p><br></p><p><em><u>Limited Availability – Additional Fees apply:</u></em><br><strong>Journey's End ($5.00 per person) </strong>- Experience your own funeral with this comedic single rider attraction. You will be placed into a coffin and hear and feel what your own funeral may be like when a discount funeral home is used!</p><p><strong>Halloween Homicide ($10.00 per team</strong>) – A murder has been committed. Become investigators, gather the clues, and solve the whodunit crime. Exclusive to Circle of Ash!</p><p><strong>Cursed Escape Room - Brand New for 2018! ($15.00 per person)</strong> – A normally gregarious resident of Central City became a recluse, and now has not been seen in three weeks. Your group enters the room to investigate when you hear the familiar “click” of a door locking behind you. You need to find another way out but what is it and how does it unlock? <em>Tickets for the escape room are only available online, not on site. </em></p><p><strong><em><u><br>Tickets:</u></em></strong></p><p>General admission tickets are just $20, and gets you into all of our included attractions for an entire evening!
