Annual celebration keeps Dan Conner's memory alive 

Dan Jam, the now-annual celebration of the life of Dan Conner, is set for Saturday, June 25, at Johnson Park. The celebration is in its third year and it's grown into a large family event open to people of all ages with proceeds benefiting the Racine County Food Bank.

On June 27, 2008, Conner, who lived in Caledonia, unexpectedly died at age 26 in a car accident on Highway K.

He worked in the before- and after-school YWCA programs in several Racine Unified schools, coached youths in soccer, basketball and baseball. He also canoed with youth at River Bend Camp and taught swimming lessons.

After his death, Conner's good friend Nick Ramsey and Conner's family took inspiration from Conner's life to create a community event to keep his memory alive.

  Armenian Picnic June 26 at Johnson Park

RACINE — St. Hagop Armenian Apostolic Church will hold its annual Armenian “Madagh” Picnic at from 10:30 a.m. to 7 p.m. Sunday, June 26, at Johnson Park, 6200 Northwestern Ave. There is no admission fee.

St. Hagop’s has held its traditional picnic since 1938. The word “Madagh” means offering and goes back to the time of Abraham who was willing to offer his only son, Isaac, to God to prove his love, faith and obedience to the Lord. When God witnesses this testimony, he asked Abraham to spare his son and offer a ram instead. Today, St.

Hagop’s Madagh is an expression of that same love, faith and gratitude to the Lord for all that he has bestowed. Armenians throughout the world have designated places of pilgrimage where they go to worship and offer a meal of Madagh to the community.

The blessing of St. Hagop’s Madagh will begin at 11 a.m., officiated by the Very Rev. Daniel Garabedian, pastor of St. Hagop Armenian Church, and served at noon.

The menu will include marinated shish kebab and chicken dinners, sarma (stuffed grape leaves), penelee (cheese puffs), khurabia (butter cookies) and other Armenian delicacies and pastries. Live Armenian music is provided by the MidEast Beat throughout the afternoon. Children’s entertainment includes a clown and face painting. A cash raffle will be held with the drawing at 6 p.m.
