Learning the Lincoln

You can learn about the history of the Lincoln Highway in Wyoming during two showings of a Wyoming PBS documentary entitled “100 years on the Lincoln Highway.”

The program, sponsored by local historians Leslie Johnson and Dick Perue, will be shown between 1 and 2:30 p.m. and again between 6 and 7:30 p.m. on Thursday, Nov. 8 in the Shively Room of the Platte Valley Community Center.

Johnson and Perue are showing the documentary as a public service and Johnson wants to work on getting a historic group together in the future.

Johnson has also been recording personal histories of Valley residents in an attempt to preserve local history.
