History is more than just a litany of facts and figures. At its heart, it is the story of those who have come before....people both famous and not so famous. History is also personal. We all have stories that help bring the past alive and those memories of people, places and occasions in our lives are among the most precious gifts we can share with others.
Even if you are not inspired to write for the generations ahead, it’s just plain fun to recall and write about some of the events in your life that you hold dear. Instead of saying “I’ll do it some day,” come on over to the Thomas Ford Memorial Library on January 25th from 2:00 to 4:00 PM for the Western Springs Historical Society’s second adult ed lecture of the year and learn how easy it can be!
Long time resident Kathryn Price will be your inspiration and guide as you get ready to write. Please bring some pencils and a notebook for the second half of this informative seminar. Thomas Ford Memorial Library, 800 Chestnut St., Western Springs. Registration required online at www.fordlibrary.org or by phone at 708-246-0520.
