Have you ever wanted an up close and personal look into the past? Wonder what life was like over 120 years ago in Eagle River? Well Join us every other Monday at 10:00am at our C.+N.W. Depot Museum to go over the historic Eagle River Review!
On February 10th we will begin going through the Review, starting as early as 1891 so you and others can catch up on the drama and news of our little community from 120 years ago! These newspapers are available online and digitally through the Library of Congress so they can accessed from everywhere!
If you would like to join the Newspaper Club, please email us at info@eagleriverhistory.org and we will add you to our mailing list. Readers will get the paper one week in advance and we will meet at the C.+N.W Depot museum every other Monday at 10:00am to discuss the news of the past!
You do not have to be present to attend, every Monday we will have a Zoom Meeting available! Zoom Link: https://us02web.zoom.us/j/88347222005

2024 DOWNTOWN HISTORIC DISTRICT LECTURE SERIES
2024 DOWNTOWN HISTORIC DISTRICT LECTURE SERIES
Have you ever wondered walking in down town Eagle River, how old one of your favorite stores is? When was it built? What were some of the first businesses that used to occupy our historic store fronts? Well, the Eagle River Historical Society is excited to announce a new Lecture Series for this upcoming Fall and Winter covering just that!
All presentations will take place in historic downtown structures that have recently been added to the National Register as part of Eagle River's New Historic District Designation! As of now we are posting all the remaining October dates, but also November and December's as well. We will take a brief hiatus over the Holidays and resume in January going forward.
All of these lectures are free for the Public to attend and will last no more than a half hour, but it will give you a more intimate understanding of our Downtown's history with key insights from archival materials, oral histories, and historic artifacts. Stay tuned for any updates on Presentation Dates and if you are a downtown business owner with a historic structure please feel free to reach out!
