Field trip to Milner Dam April 14th.
|
Jim Gentry will lead our tour of the Historical Milner Dam area on Saturday, April 14th. The group will leave the museum at 10 A.M and expect to return around 3 or 4 in the afternoon. Dr. Gentry will discuss the difference in the way the canyon is viewed, from the recreational water use, the irrigation canals and other ways the Snake River influences the community. We will also visit the "Milner Ruts" from the Oregon Trail crossing.
The Historical Society received a grant from the Idaho Humanities Council that allows us to provide the public with this and other field trips that will take place over the summer.

We have arranged for a TransIV bus to take a group to the site or you may follow in your own vehicle. This is a free event but you must sign up through the museum to ride the bus. Please call before April 12 to get a seat. You must provide your own lunch and there is room available to stow your belongings on the bus.
