Joe Root, portrayed by park naturalist Brian Gula, will join me during the program, and we will be sharing the stories behind the slides.  After the presentation, we will answer questions about Presque Isle and its long and interesting history.

In addition to a great lunch and the program, all attending will receive an autographed copy of the book Images of America – Presque Isle State Park as part of the price.
