Mixology Mondays - The Parlor at Sheraton Dallas.j

The perfect group itinerary starts with a cocktail shaker. Located in the heart of downtown, Sheraton Dallas is inviting travelers and locals to mix up their autumn plans with Mixology Mondays at The Parlor, an interactive mixology class that turns happy hour into an activity everyone can enjoy.

Every Monday from 5 to 6 p.m., the hands-on experience is led by an expert in-house mixologist, teaching the art of cocktails, with a different signature drink featured each week. Shake up classics such as an Old Fashioned, Manhattan, Cosmopolitan, Sidecar, or Mojito while picking up tips on flavor balancing, techniques, and cocktail craftsmanship.

Mixology Mondays is an easy addition to all kinds of getaways, from a bachelorette party looking for something beyond the usual brunch and bar crawl to a birthday celebration to a team looking to trade the traditional happy hour for a more interactive experience.

Afterward, groups can keep the night going at The Parlor, Sheraton Dallas’ speakeasy-inspired lounge, or explore downtown Dallas, Deep Ellum, and the Arts District. With a DART station across the street, convenient access to notable attractions and restaurants, and complimentary parking for up to four hours with validation, the hotel makes it easy to experience the best of Dallas!

Sheraton Dallas continues to offer dynamic programming designed to enhance the guest experience and connect with the local community. With fall in full swing and winter just around the corner, Mixology Mondays provide a fun and creative way to savor the season together.

Reservations are required and can be booked on the website. Guests must be 21+. $30 per person excluding tax and gratuity.

The Parlor is located at the Sheraton Dallas at 400 N. Olive Street, Dallas, Texas.

The Coppell Cowboys and Cowgirls kicked off their cross-country season with a strong showing in Waxahachie on Saturday, August 15. It was the first 5K of the season, and despite the hot August weather, the Waxahachie course—known for producing fast times—gave the runners a good opportunity to see where their summer training had taken them.

Even without the full team competing, Coppell came away with plenty to celebrate. Both the Varsity and JV Boys won their team divisions, while the Varsity Girls finished 3rd and the JV Girls earned a solid 4th-place finish overall.

With several runners needing more training time and others dealing with injuries, some of Coppell's younger athletes had an early opportunity to step up and compete at the varsity level. Coach Wren was pleased with what he saw from the group in their first 5K of the season.

“I was excited to see what many of these younger runners did with that opportunity,” Coach Wren said. “I was pleased with the way that the runners competed in their first 5K of the season. I’m looking forward to watching them grow as runners as the year goes on.”

Individual and Team Highlights

Varsity Boys — 1st Place Overall

The Varsity Boys started their season with a team victory, led by Sidharth Kerthipati’s 3rd-place finish.

Top Performers:

  • Sidharth Kerthipati — 3rd, 14:44
  • Tanish Neelapu — 9th, 15:15
  • Samuel Meier — 11th, 15:31
  • Alesh Khowala — 21st, 15:48
  • Vihaan Sahni — 34th, 16:10

It was a good opening race for the boys, especially with Coppell not yet competing with its full lineup. The team still found a way to come away with the win while giving several runners valuable early-season racing experience.

Varsity Girls — 3rd Place Overall

The Varsity Girls also got their season off to a good start with a 3rd-place team finish. Finleigh Sanders-Burk led the group, followed by Rachel Stumm, Bishakha Sinha and Anusha Patki.

Top Performers:

  • Finleigh Sanders-Burk — 22nd, 19:11
  • Rachel Stumm — 29th, 19:38
  • Bishakha Sinha — 32nd, 19:46
  • Anusha Patki — 34th, 19:50

With some younger runners getting an opportunity to compete at the varsity level, this first meet gave the girls a good starting point for the season ahead.

JV Boys — 1st Place Overall

The JV Boys made it two team victories for Coppell. Isaiah Assefa led the way by winning the race, with Rigved Nehere joining him near the front in 3rd place.

Top Performers:

  • Isaiah Assefa — 1st, 16:30
  • Rigved Nehere — 3rd, 16:45
  • Ahan Kolthalkar — 10th, 17:17
  • Colten Karstendiek — 12th, 17:25
  • Lukas Stumm — 15th, 17:28

Five Coppell runners finished in the Top 15, giving the JV Boys plenty to be happy about after their first race of the year.

JV Girls — 4th Place Overall

The JV Girls finished a respectable 4th overall, with two Coppell runners breaking into the Top 10. Hannah Stumm led the group with an 8th-place finish, followed just six seconds later by Shrriya Bedse in 10th.

Top Performers:

  • Hannah Stumm — 8th, 21:33
  • Shrriya Bedse — 10th, 21:39
  • Avery Fishman — 23rd, 22:37
  • Pragna Vykuntam — 38th, 23:16
  • Anandi Dhuipalla — 39th, 23:17

Coach Wren also recognized several other runners who had good races on Saturday, including Charlotte Baade, Avery Arthur, Mirabelle Sagel, Cannon Stehly and Vihaan Sharma.

For the team, Saturday was about more than where everyone finished. With the full lineup not yet back together, the first meet gave Coach Wren and the runners a chance to see where they are and what they can continue working on in the weeks ahead.

Looking Ahead

Next up, Coppell will trade the traditional 5K for something a little different. The Cowboys and Cowgirls will compete at the Friday Night Hawk Invite, hosted by Hebron at McInnish Park. Instead of another 5K, the runners will take on a 2-mile course under the lights of the baseball and softball fields.

“We will be shifting gears a little bit and running a 2-mile course at the Friday Night Hawk Invite hosted by Hebron at McInnish Park this week,” Coach Wren said. “This is a fun meet that is run underneath the lights of baseball and softball fields. I look forward to seeing our athletes compete again on Friday.”

One race is in the books, and there is still a lot of season ahead. With two team wins, solid finishes from the girls and younger runners already stepping up when given the opportunity, Coppell has plenty to build on.

We’re proud of their efforts, and we’ll keep pushing forward until the next race!

Citrusfest brings musicians, industry professionals and music fans together to support the next generation of independent artists.

Discover your next favorite artist at the Second Annual Citrusfest, a one-night-only live music showcase celebrating emerging talent, artist discovery and Dallas-Fort Worth’s growing music scene, Thursday, Oct. 1, 2026, at The Studio at The Bomb Factory.

This year’s lineup features R&B and soul musician and actress Alexis Ray Parker, genre-blending singer-songwriter D.X.N., indie-country artist David Forsyth, award-winning singer-songwriter Leslie Austin and American Idol contestant TRVR?, among others. The evening will be hosted by Jazzi Black, midday personality on 97.9 FM The Beat.

The event will also feature appearances by music industry professionals who will provide participating artists insight, mentorship and valuable connections to help build sustainable careers in music. This year’s industry professionals include Amp Buchanan, independent A&R executive, artist development strategist and Grammy U mentor; Tre Nagella, Grammy Award-winning producer, mixer and recording engineer; and Dale Brock, an entertainment professional with more than 25 years of experience in talent buying, touring, festival production and live entertainment.

Founded by Sydney Peters, Citrusfest was created to give unsigned and independent artists meaningful exposure, industry connections and opportunities to advance their careers. Peters launched the concept in 2020 while studying at the University of Nebraska-Lincoln and brought Citrusfest to Dallas as a live showcase in 2025. With a background in artist relations, live event production and operations, Peters continues to grow Citrusfest as a platform where emerging artists can perform, learn, connect and reach new audiences.

“Citrusfest is about discovering great music, but it’s also about creating access,” said Peters. “We want artists to walk away with more than a performance. We want them to gain relationships, knowledge and opportunities that can help them take the next step in their careers.”

For music fans, Citrusfest offers the chance to experience a diverse lineup of artists in an intimate setting and discover new music before these performers reach a wider audience. For artists and industry professionals, the evening creates a place for connection, collaboration and conversation around the future of music in DFW.

Citrusfest is made possible through the support of Citrus Ventures Group, Peter Damon Group, The Studio at The Bomb Factory and One Stop Technical Resource Services (OSTRS).

Join the Allen Community Band in a Musical Tribute honoring the 25th anniversary of the 9-11 attack on our nation. This free concert will be held at 7:30 p.m. Friday, September 11, at the Allen Public Library, 300 N. Allen Dr. A combination of patriotic selections and pieces written specifically for the September 11 remembrance will be presented.  VFW 2195 will present the colors, and First Responders will be attending.

Most notable selections to be included are:

Beautiful, flowing lines underscore trumpet soloist Kevin Purcell in a special version of TAPS arranged by band member Derek Molacek that will open the program.  The Star-Spangled Banner is the official Department of Defense version used by all military bands and other performing ensembles. 

Composed as a tribute to victims of September 11th:                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                            

A Hymn for the Lost and the Living by Eric Ewazen is a beautiful, highly expressive work for wind ensembles. It opens with a moving trumpet solo and builds into a profound, grieving memorial. Stephanie Waterman is the trumpet soloist.

9-11: Voices Echo is a two-movement piece written right after the tragedy. The first movement ("Attack") is aggressive and asymmetrical, with overlaying voices echoing the chaos. The second movement ("Aftermath") offers a somber, reflective
space.

Carmen Dragon’s highly emotional arrangement of America the Beautiful is one of the most dramatic settings of this patriotic standard ever written.  Opening with the full ensemble followed by an extended section featuring the woodwinds, the brass and percussion are added to build to a very exciting and dynamic ending.

Every Car Can is proud to participate in North Texas Giving Day 2026, inviting the DFW community to come together in support of students at Texans Can Academies.

This year’s campaign theme is Student Support — a focus on helping students overcome the real-life challenges that can make staying in school difficult. From clothing and hygiene essentials to food, transportation, and educational expenses, Every Car Can is raising funds to help provide practical resources that keep students focused on graduation.

North Texas Giving Day culminates on Thursday, September 17, 2026, with early giving opening on August 27. The annual initiative, organized by Communities Foundation of Texas, brings together donors and nonprofits across North Texas for one of the region’s largest community-wide giving efforts.

“Sometimes a student does not need someone to solve every problem,” said Cheryl Sutterfield-Jones, CEO of Every Car Can. “They may simply need help removing the one barrier standing in front of them that day. North Texas Giving Day gives our community a meaningful way to step in and help students keep moving forward.”

Every Car Can, formerly America Can! Cars for Kids, supports Texans Can Academies and its work helping high school students across Dallas, Fort Worth, Houston, and through its Virtual Academy continue their education and work toward graduation.

For this year’s campaign, Every Car Can is asking North Texans to think about what student support can look like in everyday life: a clean uniform, a meal, transportation to school, hygiene products, or help covering an educational expense. Those small interventions can make a major difference for a student already working hard to stay on track.

North Texas Giving Day is Communities Foundation of Texas’ largest community investment initiative, and participating donations made through the platform go directly to nonprofit organizations.

The DFW community can support Every Car Can beginning August 27 and through Giving Day on September 17 by visiting:

https://www.northtexasgivingday.org/organization/EveryCarCan

“North Texas has always been a community that shows up for its neighbors,” Sutterfield-Jones added. “This is an opportunity to show students that their community believes in them, their education, and what comes next.”

About Every Car Can | www.everycarcan.org

Every Car Can, formerly Cars for Kids, is a vehicle donation nonprofit supporting Texans Can Academies and its mission to help Texas high school students graduate and reach their potential.

"It's an immersive fantasy world where guests become part of the story. Every visit leads to a new discovery, every character has a tale to tell, and every visit offers something different to explore. We wanted to create an experience where people can escape reality for a day and step into a magical world they'll want to visit again and again."

A New Chapter Begins

This season introduces a new chapter in the Hollow's original storyline.
