SUMMARY:Expansion of Early Roads in the US West
DESCRIPTION:On Tuesday October 14\, Dr. E. F. Cater\, Director of the Douglas County Historical Museum in Waterville\, will present a talk\, “Expansion of Early Roads in the US West.” The program starts at 7:00 PM\, at the Wenatchee Valley Museum and Cultural Center\, 127 South Mission\, in Wenatchee. Zoom link for those who cannot attend in person: https://us02web.zoom.us/j/8185554795 Meeting ID: 818 5554 7958 \nWestern roads developed by push and shove. Business people and shippers built some of the first usable roads. They needed to get wares to market. Others built ways to get to town to buy those goods. \nBuilding new roads\, and connecting roads\, was difficult and expensive. No entity wanted to do that. Not the Federal government\, nor the states\, not the counties. They got pushed into road-building. What happened? \nAround 1912\, the introduction of the automobile\, especially the Model T\, spurred the United States into building auto-routes adequate for travel. There were no transcontinental highways. Many states didn’t even connect with one another. \n\n\n\nLocally\, the Yellowstone Trail eventually passed through Waterville\, Wenatchee\, Monitor\, Cashmere\, and over Blewett Pass. We will learn about that road. \nClick the link below to see the first 3 minutes of the presentation:\nhttps://youtu.be/Htov6YXW6L8?si=ixgoJkN63zfs1mWi \nThe program is free and open to the public. \n\n\n\n \n\n\nSwitchbacks on Blewett Pass\, 1910 \nContact information:\nKen Lacy\nWenatchee Valley Erratics’ Program Chair\n1geospiracle2@gmail.com\n(509) 787-9755

SUMMARY:Curtis Roy Moore at the Leavenworth Ski Hill
DESCRIPTION:Leavenworth Winter Sports Club hosts: Singer\, Songwriter & Storyteller Curtis Roy Moore’s unique voice infuses\, American\, folk\, country and blues creating a unique experience full of stories from his life that will may you laugh and cry. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nBorn in Pensacola\, Florida\, Curtis Moore is the son of a Navy Chief and has traveled and lived in several countries. He has worked as a crab fisherman in Alaska\, a shrimper in Florida and worked heavy civil construction in Northern Canada and the US. \nCurtis began playing guitar when he was in elementary school in Belgium when his father bough him his first guitar in 1973. After living in Europe his family moved to Leavenworth\, Washington where he was active in several music projects. \nHe has played in venues ranging from the bars of Key West\, Florida in the 80s to the coast of Canada where he was a founding member of the well-known rock and roll band\, Pacific Disturbance\, which played all over British Columbia and Alberta. \nToday Curtis Moore has developed into a powerhouse solo performer and a masterful front man who engages audiences with an authentic love of his craft. He spreads his love of music through his songs\, performance\, and his heartfelt connection with the audience. Once you have heard and seen Curtis Moore\, you will never forget him. \nHis first two influences were from a sailor in Europe who turned him on to what’s known as classic country and from a Scottish soldier who taught him how to rock and roll. \nHis major musical influences come from many artists\, mainly Ray Wylie Hubbard\, Jimmy Buffet\, John Prine\, Jason Isbell\, John Hiatt\, Jerry Jeff Walker\, Guy Clark\, Townes Van Zandt and all things Americana. \nEvent Link
