The Latah County Historical Society is looking forward to once again connecting with local history lovers this summer, after many months of necessary caution and isolation during a historic global pandemic.
Please join us for our first Suds with a Scholar of 2021 on Wednesday, June 23rd at the Latah County Fairgrounds event stage and lawn. Dr. Katherine Aiken will be the evening’s featured scholar, speaking about the life and legacy of University of Idaho’s first Dean of Women, Permeal French. French was famous for her parties and infamous for her strict enforcement of rules during her three-decade tenure at the university. She was a champion for the female students under her watch, and a true believer in the importance of school spirit.
Gates for this event will open at 5:30pm, and the program begins at 6:00pm. Entry is $10 for LCHS members and $12 for the general public. The ticket price includes a guest’s first beer, with additional pours available for purchase. A dinner featuring Hog Heaven smoked sausages will also be for sale. Attendees are encouraged to bring cash or check, but cards will be accepted.
Major support and beverage service is being provided by Pour Company, one of Moscow’s newest locally owned businesses. Visit the LCHS website or Facebook event page for additional details.
