The Monroe Historical Society’s final program of the year will be Sunday, December 11 at 2pm. The featured speaker will be Mr. Vincent Rush of Cincinnati Sports Photography. He will be discussing his time as a photographer with the USO and celebrities such as Bob Hope, Brooke Shields, & Wayne Newton. If you have ever seen any of Vince’s photos, you know what an amazing artist he is with a camera.
There will be several fundraising items available to help with your holiday shopping such as Society tee shirts, Monroe replica’s, history books, homemade apple butter & 2012 memberships.
It will also be time to draw the winner of the stunning “Amish Treasure” quilt. Nearly 10 years in the making, this is the final quilt to be made by members of the Society. There are a limited number of tickets still available for only $1 each or 6 for $5. Call Jane Majors at 539-7109 for your final chance to take home this beautiful hand sewn, heirloom quality item.
Programs are held in the Mt. Pleasant activities building, at the corner of Indiana & Northwestern Avenues, just off Britton Lane & Rt. 63. Guests always welcome & refreshments will be served. www.monroeoh-historicalsociety.org
