Historical Society to meet Dec. 7 in Jefferson

New officers, newsletter, 2019 programs & holiday music

The Greene County Iowa Historical Society will close its programming for 2018 with the annual holiday-themed lunch and meeting on Friday, Dec. 7, at the Greenewood Center in Jefferson.

The annual election of officers will be held, and a newsletter covering 2018 and 2019 activities will be distributed — and that will include the schedule of monthly and special programs to be held in ’19.

Nominees for 2019 officers are David John of Jefferson as president; Margaret Hamilton of Jefferson, programs director; Joyce Ausberger of rural Jefferson, secretary; Becki Cunningham of Paton, treasurer; and Dale Hanaman of Rippey, past-president. Nominations will be accepted from the membership at the meeting, too.

A special feature will be musical entertainment by Greene County High School band members, led by director Wes Anderson.

The lunch requires RSVPs by midday on Wednesday, Dec. 5, with members calling their community contacts, while the public can make reservations with vice-president Nancy Hanaman at 515-436-7684. Lunch is $8 for members and $10 for non-members.
