From Skating To Cocktails: Northland Fans Can Celebrate Dolly This Weekend
It has been over a week since we lost Dolly Parton and the tributes continue rolling in. I still cannot believe that she is gone! It seems surreal and she seemed immortal.
It has been hard but amazing to read all the tributes to the country star and even more so how many keep rolling in a week after her death. She was truly beloved and there will never be another like her.
She was loved for so many reasons and a big one is that she was so relatable! Despite being a global phenomenon, we never saw her husband aside from a few times in decades and she always wore her heart on her sleeve.
Her spirit touched everyone, even those in the Northland. Now, a Superior business is planning to honor the queen of country with a really cool event.

A description of the event on Facebook invites fans to skate and 'sing along' to her classics.

There will be a special '9 to 5' themed cocktail as well for the occasion, with Dolly's biggest hits playing as well. You do have to be 21 to attend the party so keep that in mind. The party is free!
The fun will last until close at 1 a.m. I can't think of two better ways to honor the only and only Dolly. I have a feeling this is exactly what she would have wanted!
