A Day with Dolly | Stories, Songs & Community
What do books, boots, butterflies, and a little bit of rhinestone sparkle have in common?
Dolly, of course.
Join United Way of the Lakeshore on Sunday, July 12 for a one-of-a-kind celebration inspired by the woman who taught the world that imagination, kindness, and a good story can change lives.
Whether you're a lifelong Dolly fan, a parent raising the next generation of readers, or just someone looking for a little joy, A Day with Dolly has something for everyone.
📚 Gather for interactive Storytime & Sing-a-Long sessions featuring a professional Dolly Parton tribute artist.
🦆 Race ducks, explore imaginative play, and celebrate the magic of childhood.

More Than a Party
At its heart, A Day with Dolly is a fundraiser for Dolly Parton's Imagination Library, helping local children receive free books delivered directly to their mailbox every month.
Because Dolly knew something powerful:
"You can never get enough books into the hands of enough children."
Every ticket purchased helps ensure more children across Muskegon and Oceana Counties have the opportunity to fall in love with reading.
So dust off your boots, add a little sparkle, and join us for a day filled with stories, songs, laughter, and community.
After all, if we're going to celebrate Dolly, we're going to do it right.
