SUMMARY:Save The Duck - Fall 2025 Trunk Show
DESCRIPTION:Fri\, Oct 3-Sat\, Oct 4\, 10am-5pm\, Dovecote will host designer Save The Duck as part of their Fall 2025 Trunk Show series. Seth is back with Save the Duck\, and he’ll be bringing along the men’s line as well! Seth received such a warm welcome last time that Dovecote couldn’t resist inviting him back. Speaking of warm\, Save the Duck is a go-to collection for all things outerwear\, while ~heartwarmingly~ upholding animal-friendly practices. Stylish and utilitarian\, Save the Duck pieces are perfect for transitional layering. Stock up during their trunk show weekend! \nDovecote Home and Garden\, Nest\, and Sprout in Fearrington Village hosts trunk shows that afford one-on-one time with designers and opportunities to shop beyond their store offerings. Trunk Shows give you the chance to see an entire collection\, not just what they bring in for the store\, which means it is the only time that some sizes and colors are available in certain styles. Chatting with a rep or designer – the experts – gives you the best insight into what styles and sizes are perfect for you\, so you can be sure you’re getting pieces that you’ll treasure forever. Fearrington Village is part of the Chatham County Craft Beverages & Country Inns Trail. See more events at Fearrington Village.

SUMMARY:Ed Southern: The Devil’s Done Come Back
DESCRIPTION:Join McIntyre’s Books for Ed Southern: The Devil’s Done Come Back – New Ghost Tales from North Carolina\, in discussion with Ross White on Sat\, Oct 11\, 2pm-3pm. \nBOOK SUMMARY \n\n\nFifteen of North Carolina’s finest writers reimagine and reclaim the stories of the ghosts who have haunted all corners of the state. \nNorth Carolina ain’t what it once was: forests and fields have given way to suburbs and vacation homes\, textile mills to high tech\, tobacco farms to tourism. That doesn’t mean\, though\, that the ghosts of the Old North State have gone away. \nIn this anthology\, readers might glimpse some of the ghostly apparitions\, headless fiends\, and creepy hollers they heard about around their childhood campfires. Now\, fifteen of the state’s finest contemporary prose writers and poets have reimagined these stories—bringing us fresh tales that are bound to scare the living daylights out of us all over again. \nThe Devil’s Done Come Back reclaims these old ghost tales as living stories\, told and retold to frighten and delight. \n\n\nABOUT THE AUTHOR \nEditor Ed Southern is the author of “Fight Songs: A Story of Love and Sports in a Complicated South\, The Jamestown Adventure\, Voices of the American Revolution in the Carolinas\,” and the short-story collection “Parlous Angels.” His work has appeared in South Writ Large\, The Bitter Southerner\, the North Carolina Literary Review\, the Asheville Poetry Review\, StorySouth\, and elsewhere. Since 2008\, he has been the executive director of the North Carolina Writers’ Network. He lives in Winston-Salem\, NC. \nRoss White is the director of Bull City Press\, an independent publisher of poetry\, fiction\, and nonfiction. He is the author of “Charm Offensive”\, winner of the Sexton Prize for Poetry\, and three chapbooks: “How We Came Upon the Colony”\, “The Polite Society”\, and “Valley of Want”. His poems have appeared in American Poetry Review\, New England Review\, POETRY\, Ploughshares\, Poetry Daily\, and The Southern Review\, among others. He teaches creative writing at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill and co-hosts The Chapbook\, a podcast devoted to tiny\, delightful collections. \nContributors include: Michele Tracy Berger on the ghosts of the Great Dismal Swamp\, Wiley Cash (and his daughters) on the Maco Light\, Annette Saunooke Clapsaddle on the Raven Mockers\, Tyree Daye on family hauntings\, Jeremy B. Jones on the phantasms of Chimney Rock\, Ed Southern on the Jack Tales and the Devil’s Tramping Ground\, Ross White on the Little Red Man of Old Salem\, and many more. \nFearrington Village is part of the Chatham County Craft Beverages & Country Inns Trail.

SUMMARY:Sara Johnson: Bone Chilling
DESCRIPTION:Join McIntyre’s Books for Sara Johnson: Bone Chilling on Sat\, Oct 18\, 11am-12pm. \nBOOK SUMMARY \n\n\nAlexa Glock is teetering on a precipice\, the ground threatening to open up beneath her―and it’s not just the immediate peril of retrieving a long-lost hiker’s skull\, given up by a melting and dangerous glacier. She’s spending a ski weekend with boyfriend DI Bruce Horne and his two daughters\, and she couldn’t be more terrified. An entire weekend trying to win over a sullen teenager and a preteen with obvious loyalties to Mom? She’s more comfortable\, almost sliding to her death on an unstable glacier. When she indeed finds herself dangling in a crevasse waiting for the experts to rescue her\, she discovers a pelvis (wearing a red Speedo!) frozen in the ice\, and the heartbreaking task of identifying multiple remains and bringing closure to families begins. \nOnce safely back on terra firma\, awaiting the arrival of Bruce and his dreaded daughters\, Alexa follows the smell of smoke to a nearby pizza joint which has been completely destroyed by fire. When a body is discovered in the smoldering ruins\, Alexa splits her time between fire and ice\, working to identify a family’s long-lost loved one and the charred remains of the fire victim. Then an avalanche during a snowboard competition leaves Bruce’s oldest daughter missing along with the snowboarder she’s been hanging out with. As Bruce and other rescuers race to find the missing teens\, evidence begins to suggest that neither the fire nor the avalanche were accidents\, and that the daughter’s boyfriend might have information about both… \n\n\nABOUT THE AUTHOR \nSara E. Johnson is a mystery writer who spent nine months exploring wondrous New Zealand. Everywhere she looked\, there was a mystery that needed to be written. Sara lives in Durham\, North Carolina\, with her husband and is a graduate of the Durham Citizen Police Academy.

SUMMARY:Justin Laborde: Scattered Far and Wide
DESCRIPTION:Join McIntyre’s Books for Justin Laborde: Scattered Far and Wide – The Naval Academy Class of ’38 at War on Sat\, Oct 25\, 11am-12pm. \nBOOK SUMMARY \n\n\nScattered Far and Wide follows the U.S. Naval Academy Class of 1938 as they rise from junior officers to combat leaders in World War II’s most pivotal battles. Through firsthand accounts and deep research\, Justin Laborde brings their stories of courage\, sacrifice\, and survival vividly to life. \nScattered Far and Wide tells the war stories of U.S. Naval Academy midshipmen from the Class of 1938. Commissioned on the eve of World War II\, they bore the new burden of command while at the forefront of the Pacific War’s most significant and most pivotal campaigns. They felt the wind and spray in their faces\, and the percussion of ships’ guns and depth charges at the pivotal moment in their lives and careers\, making their experiences unusually compelling\, heartbreaking\, and—most assuredly—instructive. \nFrom Pearl Harbor through the end of the war\, these men fought and struggled for survival as part of the U.S. Navy’s Asiatic Fleet. In the early months of the conflict\, they tried to stem the onslaught of the Imperial Japanese Navy. Some were captured and sent to brutal prisoner-of-war camps. Others took to the air from aircraft carriers as members of torpedo\, bomber\, and fighter squadrons during the Battles of the Coral Sea and Midway. Later in the war\, a number served aboard submarines\, experiencing some of the most legendary patrols in the history of the Silent Service. The young men who graduated from the Naval Academy in 1938 earned medals and fame\, left legacies of heroism and loss\, and sparked tales of renown and bravery that reverberate today. \n\n\nABOUT THE AUTHOR \nJustin Laborde\, PhD\, is a strategic consultant and frequent speaker on consumer trends\, marketplace insights\, and business growth strategies for Fortune 500 companies. Raised in New Orleans\, Louisiana\, Justin now lives with his wife\, Amanda\, and their three children in Cary\, North Carolina. Justin’s grandfather\, Alden Laborde\, was a member of the Class of 1938. Upon his death\, Justin obtained a 1938 edition of The Lucky Bag\, the Naval Academy’s yearbook. Reading the memoirs of Alden’s classmates\, Justin realized he was well-placed to tell the fascinating and previously unreported story of this class’s experiences in World War II. \nFearrington Village is part of the Chatham County Craft Beverages & Country Inns Trail.

SUMMARY:Ann Lightfoot - Fall 2025 Trunk Show
DESCRIPTION:Thu\, Oct 30-Sat\, Nov 1\, 10am-5pm\, Dovecote will host designer Ann Lightfoot as part of their Fall 2025 Trunk Show series. One of the highlights of the season for Dovecote is their trunk show with Ann Lightfoot. Whether you are starting or adding to your collection\, it is a joy to be around Ann and her stunning pieces\, jewelry that goes with everything\, layers beautifully\, and items you will treasure for a lifetime. Not only is she a true talent with impeccable taste\, but she’s lovely. They will have her for a three-day trunk show event\, so whether you swing by to start your own collection\, add to it\, or just say hello\, it will be a fun weekend! \nDovecote Home and Garden\, Nest\, and Sprout in Fearrington Village hosts trunk shows that afford one-on-one time with designers and opportunities to shop beyond their store offerings.

Chatting with a rep or designer – the experts – gives you the best insight into what styles and sizes are perfect for you\, so you can be sure you’re getting pieces that you’ll treasure forever. Fearrington Village is part of the Chatham County Craft Beverages & Country Inns Trail. See more events at Fearrington Village.
