Amaluna invites the audience to a mysterious island governed by Goddesses and guided by the cycles of the moon.

Their queen, Prospera, directs her daughter’s coming-of-age ceremony in a rite that honours femininity, renewal, rebirth and balance which marks the passing of these insights and values from one generation to the next.

In the wake of a storm caused by Prospera, a group of young men lands on the island, triggering an epic, emotional story of love between Prospera’s daughter and a brave young suitor. But theirs is a love that will be put to the test. The couple must face numerous demanding trials and overcome daunting setbacks before they can achieve mutual trust, faith and harmony.

The Early Days

FEATURE

In 1957, Elvis purchased Graceland, Jackie Robinson retired from baseball, and James R. Cavender opened a little burger joint called Dairy Mart in the 20 small northeast Texas town of Pittsburg. After 8 years in food service, James decided to dip his toe into the entrepreneurial pool by expanding his business interests into retail.

In 1965, Cavender’s customers had just three styles of Tony Lama boots to choose from and they were likely to hear the familiar strumming of a Buck Owens song while shopping.

Today customers will still hear old classics intermingled with Texas Country. The service and the craftsmanship in the product provided are still ďŹ rst class and there is a whole lot more to choose from when you walk into a Cavender’s store, including hundreds of styles of cowboy boots.

A Family Business Today Cavender’s has become the go-to western wear retailer with a reach spanning eight states. Fortyeight of the 69 stores have roots securely planted in the soil all over the Lone Star State.

Cavender’s is still family owned and operated and led

by James’ three

Cavender’s has quality Western fashions for the whole family.

sons. Joe, the eldest brother, serves as President of the company, while Mike is VicePresident of Operations, and youngest brother Clay is Vice President of Merchandising.

The Cavender’s are always ďŹ rst to credit their success to the dedication and loyalty of their employees. “Our employees work in a team atmosphere, like a family,â€? says Mike. The business model was adopted from their founder and father, whose voice still rings through

the halls of Cavender’s headquarters in Tyler, Texas, half a century later. Their mother, Mrs. Pat, styles and stages each store and no store is complete until it receives her personal touch. She travels to each new location and often, from the top of ladders, adds the charming ďŹ nishing touches to the signature western style.

Aside from the operations of the retail giant, the family owns and operates ďŹ ve working ranches throughout Texas and Oklahoma, from which they glean inspiration for their products.

Those products include work wear, classic western styles, the latest trends in ladies and men’s fashion, accessories, home dÊcor and of course, boots.

The First Fifty Years James provided an excellent model of success and work ethic for his sons to follow.

In 1965, when he made the decision to follow his dream, Cavender’s was born and has thrived for 50 years thanks in part to the love and dedication of his children.

Here’s to another 50 years of cowboy boots kicking up dust across the great state of Texas.
