On Tuesday, September 15, 2026, the Scottsdale Civil War Roundtable will host Cecily Zander, speaking on “Second Bull Run: Pope’s Blunder, Politics, and Partisans”. The presentation deconstructs the dramatic August 1862 Second Battle of Bull Run, focusing on the operational failures of Union Major General John Pope, the toxic political infighting within the Union high command, and how harsh policies toward Southern partisans reshaped the nature of the American Civil War. Dr. Cecily Zander is an assistant professor of history at the University of Wyoming. She also serves as a Senior Fellow at the Center for Presidential History at Southern Methodist University. Her first book The Army under Fire: The Politics of Antimilitarism in the Civil War Era, won the 2024 Wiley-Silver Prize for the best first book in Civil War History. Her next book, a history of Abraham Lincoln and the American West, will be published by Liveright. She is also working on a short history of the Fort Laramie Treaty of 1868. In addition to teaching and writing, she edits the History in an Afternoon series at Louisiana State University Press. The lecture will begin at 6:00 p.m. in the Copper Auditorium located on the lower level of the Civic Center branch of the Scottsdale Public Library, 3839 N Drinkwater Blvd., Scottsdale. The doors will open at 5:00 p.m., providing an opportunity to meet the speaker, browse our book sale, and view Civil War videos. Parking is free at the adjacent sub-level covered parking garage accessible off Northbound Drinkwater Blvd. The public is welcome, free of charge, to attend the monthly meeting of the Scottsdale Civil War Roundtable.

Healthcare professionals from across Arizona are invited to connect, collaborate and explore a more integrated approach to patient care at the Phoenix H.E.A.L. Summit, taking place Thursday, September 17, from 6:30–9:30 p.m. in Scottsdale.
Unlike a traditional healthcare conference, the H.E.A.L. Summit brings professionals from different specialties together to examine real patient cases, share perspectives and better understand how their areas of expertise intersect. The goal is to help providers build stronger professional relationships and referral networks while creating a more connected approach to caring for patients with complex or overlapping health concerns.
Following successful H.E.A.L. Summits in Los Angeles, Portland, Toronto and other cities, Founder and Functional Airway Dentist Dr. Mandeep Johal is bringing the event to Arizona for the first time. The Summit aims to build stronger connections between healthcare specialties, ultimately helping Arizona patients get to the right care sooner and benefit from a more collaborative, whole-person approach to their health.
Featured speakers include Functional Health Specialist Greg McLean, Doctor of Physical Therapy Dr. Jessica Futch, Chiropractor Dr. Sydney Bickmeyer and Pediatrician Dr. Rajeev Agarwal.

First Christian Church Scottsdale

Experience live Spanish guitar in Scottsdale on September 18 with Latin Grammy-winning guitarist and composer Diego García “Twanguero.”
After performing across the U.S. and around the world, Twanguero brings his acclaimed Backroads of the Americas solo show to Scottsdale for one night at First Christian Church Scottsdale.
Rooted in Spanish folk and shaped by the sounds of the Americas, his music moves between Latin American rhythms, American roots and the guitar traditions that have inspired him throughout his life. From Paco de Lucía and Atahualpa Yupanqui to Baden Powell, Chet Atkins and Merle Travis, Twanguero draws from a remarkable lineage while creating a sound unmistakably his own.
Backroads of the Americas is an intimate solo guitar experience — rhythmic, melodic, percussive and filled with stories gathered along the road.
Advance tickets available now.
<blockquote>
“One of the most fascinating guitarists I’ve ever heard.” — NP</blockquote>
