Mission Statement: We are volunteers serving all of Grand County, dedicated to the accurate portrayal of Grand County and Colorado history. We present educational and entertaining programs by invitation for community and private events.
Upcoming Events:
Seminar on Collecting and Presenting Oral History -
We are bringing to Grand County two trainers to show us how to do historical interviews and how to record them for access on the internet via www.grandcountyhistory.com and all other historical websites in the county. The trainers have developed similar projects in San Luis and Del Norte. These projects are collectively know as the Novella Project.
When & Where - Granby Library community room
• Friday 8/20/2010 8am to 4pm
• Saturday 8/21/2010 8am to 12 noon
The cost is $25.00 per person and includes morning coffee-juice-pastries and lunch on Friday. The Grand County Characters believe it is important to record our communities history before it is to late. If we are going to record history we should be following established protocols that the museums and libraries use today. We in Grand County are blessed with a plethora of pioneer people that have much to say and valuable history to record. Please help us in doing this project by taking this seminar and becoming a trained interviewer for recording history. Our heritage is our most valuable resource. Please call Dave or Kathy Naples at 887-3066 or 970-281-9094 for more information and for signing up.
