Speaker: Stan Myers
Topic: “Shaping northern Idaho: how the ‘handle of the pan’ came about and what it took to put both sides on the ground.”
He’ll discuss the territorial history of the PNW that led to the border on each side of the Idaho Panhandle, as well as the epic and extremely difficult surveys undertaken to map out the east and west boundaries.
Each Third Thursday, a new presentation, conversation, or mini-exhibit will be hosted by BCHS members with passion and knowledge about local history. Join us for the History Exchange. Due to limited space, these events are open to Historical Society members only. Light refreshments and plenty of community.
5:00 pm - 6:30 pm
If you have a program to share, an idea, or want to help out with our History Exchange, connect with our Volunteer Coordinator.
