This Sunday afternoon promises to be interesting, informative and, most of all, fun!

 

We will start the afternoon with a formal opening of the renovated Bonaventure House Museum, followed by introduction of "Abe Lincoln" along with ice cream, music, and tours of the museum.

 

Abe Lincoln is played by North College Hill resident Stan Wernz, who graduated from Greenhills High School.  He worked for P&G after serving in the Army, then returned to college earning a Master of Music Education degree.  In the late 1960s, after growing a beard, a student commented that Wernz always acted like Lincoln and now he looked like him - the rest is history.  He did extensive research on Lincoln and developed several programs as "living history" of our 16th President.

 

Music will be provided by Loveland resident Harry Perry on keyboard.

 

"Vintage" attire and hats are appropriate for this old fashioned gala event.  Bring family and friends for some great entertainment.  A minimal charge for ice cream and toppings is a donation of $1.00 per dip.
