APPLETON -- Psychic Medium Ivy Rivera will conduct a
workshop titled: "Psychic abilities, Mediumship and Empathic Means. What is the difference?" at 1 p.m. Sunday at the Winery at Marjim Manor.
After explaining the basics, she’ll walk attendees through the first steps to determine their innate abilities.
As a child, Rivera was clairvoyant, empathic, communicative and could see spirits, but didn't know she was able to give a reading. Alongside the medium who discovered her, Rivera agreed to develop her abilities and gave her first reading when she was 16 years old.
“It was then, when I was child, I found out this ability ran in my family. No one had done it professionally until I did."
Her home base, The Ivy League Academy, offers various classes and lectures including Reiki, tarot, psychic mediumship development, open circle, astrology, yoga, mindfulness, paranormal training, and anything else you could possibly need for spiritual development. Rivera firmly believes that
mediumship is essential to our well-being and balance: “Through your intuition and connection with spirit and the universe, you can better understand who you are and what your calling is in life. You can prevent negative energy from coming into your life, you can heal where negative energy has been present, and most importantly move yourself forward on a path that feels true to you. You can enjoy your life to the fullest, and have a more positive outlook for yourself and those around you.”
“I don’t believe abilities are necessarily 'the gift,' everybody has the potential to develop them. I felt a need to help people to overcome their fears and doubts so that they could become unblocked and truly be themselves and not be afraid of their potentials — this lead me to organize a small class, which has turned into multiple courses and developmental programs. My mission is to send well-intentioned people into the world, so we can all start spreading more positivity and understanding, while also changing the stigma of what it means to have psychic, mediumistic, and empathic abilities.”

APPLETON — Murder and mystery are on the menu Saturday evening at the Winery at Marjim Manor.
The 7 p.m. dinner will be paired with "The Principal is NOT my Pal," which features Aragain High Class of 1975's class reunion. As the dinner begins, it is announced that at the end of the school tour, Principal Erastus Dean (or Dean Dean as he preferred to be called) was found dead in his office. Class President Ivan Halls takes the situation in hand to keep the festivities moving. However, he is suspicious of Class Valedictorian Einstein Alberts and Class Jock Jordan Michaels.

Most of the organizing of the event was done by members of the Class of 2006: Drama Queen Wilma Spearshake, Class Musician and current school administrative assistant Avaloni Franks and Teacher’s Pet Gertrude (Goody) Tooshoos.
Guest are encouraged to bring their favorite high school memories to share.
Each course will be paired with various wines, both dry and sweet. Fruit salad will be served first, followed by a garden salad. The mail course will be a buffet, followed by a seasonal dessert.
In addition to the meal and theater, guests will receive a keepsake wine glass and Aragain High Reunion Yearbook. Prizes will be drawn from those who correctly guess the murderer and for the best explanation.

APPLETON — The Winery at Marjim Manor received five medals at the recent Finger Lakes International Wine Competition — including a gold for Cherry Concerto.
A sweet cherry wine, Cherry Concerto is made with the Montmorency cherry. It has been nicknamed "cherry pie in a bottle."
Winery owner Margo Sue Bittner says the wine pairs well with spicy beef dishes. "However, the flavor pops when paired with anything chocolate."
Silver medals were awarded to Applegria, a blend of apple, peach and pear wines; Slice of Heaven, a sweet apple wine, and Adams’ Appleberry, a blend of apple and cranberry. Thursday Afternoon at 3, a peach and white wine blend received a bronze medal.
The wines are available at the winery, which is open from 10 a.m. - 6 p.m. daily and noon until 6 p.m. on Sundays, as well as 160 liquor stores and restaurants. A list of places that carry it are available on the winery's website, www.MarjimManor.com.
