Please mark your
calendars. The next board meeting will be held Saturday,
July 12 at 4:30 p.m. in Topeka, Kansas at the Kansas
State Historical Society—Will send map and room
layout later.
Immediately following the meeting, a wine and cheese
reception will be held in the CHR Gallery in honor of
the new Dennis Handke Railroad Collection. KSLS will
present KSHS with an electronic copy of the Chicago
Rock Island Pacific railroad maps and deeds; Dennis
Handke will present the KSHS with all the paper documents
he has stored in his basement for the past 30 years.
We have received some preview discs of this project
and it looks great! A few minor items to deal with,
but this is a great opportunity for good public relations
for both KSLS and KSHS. We will be inviting legislators
and historical societies from all of the counties along
the rail lines to attend this event.
