Wawa, PA (April 13, 2021) – Wawa, Inc. today announced plans for Wawa Week with “The Goldbergs”, a celebration of its founding and the 57th anniversary of its entrance into the retail business, set to begin on April 16. This year, to commemorate the occasion, Wawa is stepping back in time to the 1980s! – featuring a special celebration of everyone’s favorite ‘80s-themed family show, “The Goldbergs”! “The Goldbergs” airs on Wednesday nights at 8:00pm ET/PT on ABC and weeknights on local stations in syndication. As part of this year’s call to Look Back, Give Back, and Throwback, Wawa Week will also proudly celebrate the seventh anniversary of The Wawa Foundation, a 501(c)(3), committed to supporting non-profits focused on causes related to Health, Hunger and Everyday Heroes, and the achievement of $100 Million in contributions since inception. To further mark this historic milestone, customers are invited to join Wawa and The Wawa Foundation throughout Wawa Week in giving back to local children’s hospitals. “Wawa Week provides us with the perfect opportunity to look back upon and thank the millions of customers we’ve had the pleasure of serving over the past 57 years,” said Chris Gheysens, Wawa’s President and CEO. “This past year has no doubt been a difficult one for us all, so, as we remember the 1980s with fun look backs and throwbacks, we are thrilled to give back to the community we serve in more ways than ever and to celebrate this milestone of Wawa and The Wawa Foundation. Happy Wawa Week, everyone!” This year, a full week of exciting activities, opportunities and initiatives are planned for all 900+ stores chainwide including: 1.

Wawa Week History On April 16, 1964, Wawa forever changed history by entering the convenience business with its first store in Folsom, Pennsylvania. On that same day, in 2014, Wawa launched The Wawa Foundation, Wawa’s 501(c)(3) which supports most of its charitable giving. Since then, every year Wawa holds special celebrations on April 16 to commemorate these milestones. Today, with more than 940 stores across six states and DC, Wawa Week exemplifies Wawa’s commitment to its core purpose of going beyond filling orders to fulfilling customers’ lives, every day. A Look Back at Wawa and The Goldbergs This year, Wawa is honoring its anniversary with a special tribute to “The Goldbergs”. Set in Jenkintown, PA, “The Goldbergs” has been making references to its hometown convenience store, Wawa, since the beginning of the show! From Smash Ball in the Wawa parking lot to the JTP meeting their rivals outside the Jenkintown store, Wawa and “The Goldbergs” have always had a special connection. Wawa is thrilled to enhance the Wawa Week celebration with “The Goldbergs” and harken back to one of the most beloved decades in our history. Celebrating a Historic Milestone with $100 Million in Contributions from Wawa and The Wawa Foundation This year, Wawa Week is also honoring The Wawa Foundation’s seven years of charitable giving by announcing Wawa and The Wawa Foundation’s achievement of distributing $100 million to causes supporting health, hunger and everyday heroes. Since the Foundation’s launch in 2014, The Wawa Foundation has impacted over 6,000 organizations across Wawa’s operating area. Wawa and The Wawa Foundation are committed to building and maintaining strong relationships with local communities and national partners, through financial grants supported by in-store charity collection campaigns, in-kind support for local community events and organizations, and the Wawa Share food donation program, which donates unsold foodservice products to local food pantries. “We are thrilled to mark such a momentous milestone in The Wawa Foundation’s history, one that could not have been reached without the unwavering support of our customers, associates and communities,” said Chris Gheysens. “As the Foundation looks to the future, we pledge to continue championing life-saving research and the care of people in need, leading hunger relief efforts and supporting the heroes who make a difference every day. To everyone who has supported our work, thank you! Together, we’ve made, and continue to make, a true difference in our communities.” About Wawa, Inc. Wawa, Inc., a privately held company, began in 1803 as an iron foundry in New Jersey. Toward the end of the 19th Century, owner George Wood took an interest in dairy farming and the family began a small processing plant in Wawa, PA in 1902. The milk business was a huge success, due to its quality, cleanliness and “certified” process. As home delivery of milk declined in the early 1960s, Grahame Wood, George’s grandson, opened the first Wawa Food Market in 1964 as an outlet for dairy products. Today, Wawa is your all day, every day stop for freshly prepared foods, beverages, coffee, fuel services and surcharge-free ATMs. Wawa stores are located in Pennsylvania, New Jersey, Delaware, Maryland, Virginia, Florida and Washington, D.C. The stores offer a large fresh foodservice selection, including Wawa brands such as custom prepared hoagies, freshly-brewed coffee, hot breakfast sandwiches, specialty beverages and an assortment of soups, sides and snacks. About The Wawa Foundation The Wawa Foundation is an extension of Wawa’s commitment to making the world a better place by fulfilling customers’ lives every day. The Wawa Foundation is a registered 501(c)(3) non-profit corporation founded by Wawa, Inc. to support the company’s charitable giving and philanthropic activities – and ultimately to help build happier, stronger communities. The Wawa Foundation focuses its support on organizations committed to health, hunger and everyday heroes through local, state and national grants and in-kind donations. About “The Goldbergs” Set in the ‘80s, “The Goldbergs” is a nostalgic comedy series that chronicles the lives of a suburban Philadelphia family that, though dysfunctional and often rowdy, sticks together through whatever challenges life throws at them with heartfelt moments along the way. “The Goldbergs” stars Wendi McLendon-Covey as Beverly Goldberg, Sean Giambrone as Adam Goldberg, Troy Gentile as Barry Goldberg, Hayley Orrantia as Erica Goldberg, Sam Lerner as Geoff Schwartz, with George Segal as Al “Pops” Solomon and Jeff Garlin as Murray Goldberg. Adam F. Goldberg, Doug Robinson, Seth Gordon, Alex Barnow, Chris Bishop, Mike Sikowitz, David Guarascio, Bill Callahan, Annie Mebane and Annette Sahakian Davis are executive producers. “The Goldbergs” is produced by Happy Madison, Doug Robinson Productions and Adam F. Goldberg Productions, in association with Sony Pictures Television. .

  • February 26, 2021 Amazon Warehouse Workers In
    February 26, 2021 Amazon warehouse workers in Bessemer, Alabama are voting to form a union with the Retail, Wholesale and Department Store Union (RWDSU). We are the writers of feature films and television series. All of our work is done under union contracts whether it appears on Amazon Prime, a different streaming service, or a television network. Unions protect workers with essential rights and benefits. Most importantly, a union gives employees a seat at the table to negotiate fair pay, scheduling and more workplace policies. Deadline Amazon accepts unions for entertainment workers, and we believe warehouse workers deserve the same respect in the workplace. We strongly urge all Amazon warehouse workers in Bessemer to VOTE UNION YES.

  • An Analysis of Hegemonic Social Structures in "Friends"
    "I'LL BE THERE FOR YOU" IF YOU ARE JUST LIKE ME: AN ANALYSIS OF HEGEMONIC SOCIAL STRUCTURES IN "FRIENDS" Lisa Marie Marshall A Dissertation Submitted to the Graduate College of Bowling Green State University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY August 2007 Committee: Katherine A. Bradshaw, Advisor Audrey E. Ellenwood Graduate Faculty Representative James C. Foust Lynda Dee Dixon © 2007 Lisa Marshall All Rights Reserved iii ABSTRACT Katherine A. Bradshaw, Advisor The purpose of this dissertation is to analyze the dominant ideologies and hegemonic social constructs the television series Friends communicates in regard to friendship practices, gender roles, racial representations, and social class in order to suggest relationships between the series and social patterns in the broader culture. This dissertation describes the importance of studying television content and its relationship to media culture and social influence. The analysis included a quantitative content analysis of friendship maintenance, and a qualitative textual analysis of alternative families, gender, race, and class representations. The analysis found the characters displayed actions of selectivity, only accepting a small group of friends in their social circle based on friendship, gender, race, and social class distinctions as the six characters formed a culture that no one else was allowed to enter. iv ACKNOWLEDGMENTS This project stems from countless years of watching and appreciating television. When I was in college, a good friend told me about a series that featured six young people who discussed their lives over countless cups of coffee. Even though the series was in its seventh year at the time, I did not start to watch the show until that season.

  • By Jennifer M. Fogel a Dissertation Submitted in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy
    A MODERN FAMILY: THE PERFORMANCE OF “FAMILY” AND FAMILIALISM IN CONTEMPORARY TELEVISION SERIES by Jennifer M. Fogel A dissertation submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy (Communication) in The University of Michigan 2012 Doctoral Committee: Associate Professor Amanda D. Lotz, Chair Professor Susan J. Douglas Professor Regina Morantz-Sanchez Associate Professor Bambi L. Haggins, Arizona State University © Jennifer M. Fogel 2012 ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS I owe my deepest gratitude to the members of my dissertation committee – Dr. Susan J. Douglas, Dr. Bambi L. Haggins, and Dr. Regina Morantz-Sanchez, who each contributed their time, expertise, encouragement, and comments throughout this entire process. These women who have mentored and guided me for a number of years have my utmost respect for the work they continue to contribute to our field. I owe my deepest gratitude to my advisor Dr. Amanda D. Lotz, who patiently refused to accept anything but my best work, motivated me to be a better teacher and academic, praised my successes, and will forever remain a friend and mentor. Without her constructive criticism, brainstorming sessions, and matching appreciation for good television, I would have been lost to the wolves of academia. One does not make a journey like this alone, and it would be remiss of me not to express my humble thanks to my parents and sister, without whom seven long and lonely years would not have passed by so quickly. They were both my inspiration and staunchest supporters. Without their tireless encouragement, laughter, and nurturing this dissertation would not have been possible.

  • Bach Goldberg Variations 127 Versions Surveyed, March 2013
    Bach Goldberg Variations 127 versions surveyed, March 2013 With this survey I’ve changed the format somewhat by foregoing the review of what other critics have said and the section-by-section interpretative analysis (with illustrative samples of the score), and I’ve simplified the table of recordings. Instead, I’ve focused on the really nitty-gritty issue of differing philosophical approaches and why the same recording would illicit rave reviews from one listener while proving to be utter anathema to another listener. I’ll also disclose my own listening biases which may or may not align with the reader’s own point of view. Historical Overview Reviewer’s Disclaimer Identifying Listener Preferences Interpretive Decisions Recommended Recordings Reviewer’s Discography © Graham Reid 2014. All Rights Reserved www.PianoEnthusiast.com Historical Overview In the last few decades the Goldbergs have become a veritable icon for what Western musical culture is. Glen Gould’s rendering was sent to the stars aboard Voyager. Popular movies use it as background music whenever there’s a need to represent the positive and optimistic aspects of humanity. The work has been realized by virtually every type of keyboard instrument—piano, harpsichord, organ, synthesizer, accordion—as well as versions for various chamber ensembles. And numerous new releases and re-imaginings continue to sell well across all age groups. Prominent musicologists have cited the Goldbergs along with Beethoven’s Diabelli Variations as the finest exemplar of this form. I would also have to add Brahms as a master of the variation form (on themes by Haydn, Handel, and Paganini), and Reger’s under- appreciated contributions to the form (on themes by Bach, Mozart, Beethoven, and Telemann).
