Life on the Lewis and Clark Trail

Author, humorist and educator John Lynn of Peoria will be visiting Fairview Heights to present a slide show on the epic story of the crossing of the Continental Divide by Lewis and Clark's Corps of Discovery. John mountain biked their nearly 400-mile route through Montana and Idaho, including the scenic Lolo Trail across the Bitterroot Mountains.

The program will be from 5 to 8:30 p.m. Thursday, March 10, at the Kinsella Community Room of the Fairview Heights Public Library, 10017 Bunkum Rd. in Fairview Heights, Ill. Reservations are required for the event, and they can be made by calling (618) 489-207 or sending an e-mail to fha@lcls.org.
