*Come experience the future of computing... The Oculus Rift Virtual Reality Headset places you inside your computer’s world. Thrill to a wild roller coaster ride that may cause dizziness. Try maneuvering light sabers in a musical game of eye hand coordination. Or, just be dazzled witnessing an urban battle scene unfold in slow motion. Spoiler alert, the ending may shock you! Joe Dillon will guide you to the future - be sure to stop by and experience it!!

**Pedro Guerrero was a well-known photographer of architecture and art who lived on Brookside Road with his family. His daughter Susan was NCHS’67, and son Marc, NCHS’69. A second gallery will consider the family's 50 years life in town. The Historical Society will also host a talk about Mr. Guerrero’s career on Sunday at 3:00.  Dr. Emily Bills of Woodside University and Dixie Guerrero, wife of Mr. Guerrero will speak.
