Dear Detectives:

There is HISTORY, then there’s HISTORY! Sometimes it’s fun to take a broader perspective to our local history.

I am please to announce to you that this month’s program will feature the presentation on the Ice Age Floods National Geologic Trail, a project being advocated by the Ice Age Floods Institute and the National Park Service.

Rick Thompson, of the Lower Columbia Chapter of the Ice Age Floods Institute will introduce us to this project and will have books and other media available to provide you with even more information about it. More information is also available at www.GigaFlood.com. As an introduction:

Mr. Thompson is President of the Lower Columbia Chapter of the Ice Age Floods Institute which holds monthly public educational meetings in Tualatin. He was instrumental in identifying and securing signage for several significant glacial erratics in Washington County; has been interviewed for a number of newspaper articles and was twice featured on Grant McOmie’s “Grant’s Getaways” television program.
