WWII vet with Award Bronze Metal for bravery, oldest Marine Corps League member, and fitness pioneer turn 101, 102, 103 — Coronado event July 17 The Coronado Public Library is hosting “100+ A Celebration of Marvelous Lives” — a public panel conversation with three local centenarians, ages 101, 102, and 103. Peggy Price (103), Walt Travis (102), and Bill Hiscock (101). Bill served with the 20th Armored Division in World War II, crossing the Rhine and fighting in the Battle of the Ruhr Pocket before his division helped liberate Dachau. He earned the Combat Infantryman Badge and a Bronze Star for bravery. Walt is the oldest living member of the Marine Corps League. And Peggy has kept fitness at the center of her life since 1968, when she joined one of Coronado’s first community fitness programs — modeled after the Royal Canadian Air Force. Drawing as many as 75 people — a spark that kept her active for the rest of her life. Three centenarians, three very different paths to a hundred plus years — all in one room, sharing their wit and wisdom. The conversation will be led by Cynthia Mendolia, National Board-Certified Health & Wellness Coach specializing in aging and longevity with special guest Jill Olen, for the National Institute on Aging. Friday, July 17 | 11 a.m. Coronado Public Library, 640 Orange Avenue, Coronado, CA 92118 coronadolibrary.org | (619) 522-7390

Get ready to witness transcenDANCE's annual CREATE production "Harvesting Hope" on July 24 - 25, 2026. How is hope a tool for resilience, transformation, and collective care? How do small ideas and persistent action lead to positive change in our communities? What does it look like to cultivate hope in our own lives? Our 2026 CREATE production asks these questions through original contemporary and hip-hop dance pieces, interwoven with performance poetry and visual art. When transcenDANCE students spoke with local San Diego changemakers early this year, they learned about creative resistance, the many ways they as individuals can engage in changemaking, and what it takes to start and sustain change. Through Harvesting Hope, they share their inspiration, creativity, and ideas for collective action. Show Times: Friday, July 24, 2026 and Saturday, July 25, 2026 Lobby and box office open at 6 p.m. Showtime: 6:30 p.m. Venue Location: Hoover High School Performing Arts Center 4474 El Cajon Blvd. San Diego, CA 92115 Parking Information: Free parking is available in the large parking lots in the front of school campus. The Performing Arts Center is at the front of campus on the Western side (left when facing the campus from El Cajon Boulevard). transcenDANCE on Facebook / Instagram
