Echoes from the Past to be presented Wednesday

Published 9:14 am Friday, August 12, 2011

“Echoes From the Past…A Journey Into History” will be presented at 6:30 p.m. Wednesday at Graceland Cemetery. The lives of two women and two men who lived and were part of the history of Freeborn County will be presented. Their stories will be told by re-enactors who have developed their story lines from data collected on each individual. Each presentation is approximately 12 to 15 minutes. There will be only one presentation area this year so the re-enactors will not be competing against each other to be heard.

Pat Mulso, executive director of the Freeborn County Historical Museum, Library & Village reminds those attending, to park on Wedgewood Road if they are able to walk a distance, or to follow the directions of the volunteers if you need to arrive closer to the performance location.

Everyone must enter through the Wedgewood Road entrance to receive a ticket for the event. (This is on the north side of the Cemetery).

In case of adverse weather, Mulso said the re-enactment will be held at the Freeborn County Historical Museum, 1031 Bridge Avenue.
