Through Library Dads, Khari Arnold helps fathers in the Atlanta area discover a love of reading with their children. Arnold launched the group after he started taking his young daughter, Aria, on weekly trips to the library. He watched as both her vocabulary and their bond grew, and he began inviting other fathers to join them. The Library Dads has expanded to multiple libraries, where members enjoy storytime and activities while strengthening their relationships with their children and one another.
The musical director of a Vermont production of “The Rocky Horror Show” allegedly sent himself threatening text messages so the show would be canceled. After Kenneth Grenier reported the threats, the play was called off over safety concerns. And when an Essex Police Department investigation found that the messages came from an IP address registered to Grenier’s home, he admitted to sending the texts, saying he wanted to leave the show to avoid dealing with “difficulties with the cast and crew,” Essex police said.
