Events

We expect 20 - 24 representatives of the beneficiary organizations.

Many of the places that helped make Dayton a center of innovation were lost to history, while others survived and adapted, representing the city's spirit of revitalization.

Some of the city's distinctive and significant structures, such as Steele High School and the Callahan Building, were demolished, while others, including the Arcade and Centre City Building, saw hard times but now await redevelopment. Entire neighborhoods, such as the Haymarket, and commercial districts, such as West Fifth Street, vanished and show no traces of their past. Others, including the popular Oregon District, narrowly escaped the wrecking ball. From the Wright Brothers Factory to the park that hosted the first NFL game, Andrew Walsh explores the diverse selection of retail, industrial, entertainment and residential sites from Dayton's disappearing legacy.

We may have time to do the table set-up for Saturday's event.

Presentation for proposed changes to the Miamisburg Rotary Club

Nearly all of us have had extensive lessons on the Revolutionary War—Lexington and Concord, the Declaration of Independence, Bunker Hill, Valley Forge, George Washington, Benedict Arnold and Alexander Hamilton—the list goes on and on. However, as I dug into historical research for my new Revolutionary War thriller, ABIGAIL TRENCH, I stumbled upon details and specifics about how and why we won that war that I never knew. I was surprised and fascinated by these revelations and have drawn from what I learned to create a multi-media presentation to highlight five major reasons we won the war for independence—and not the ones taught in American History class. What better time than our country’s 250th anniversary to gain some new insights into the fight for independence. You’ll come away a wiser patriot.
