“Once Upon a Township…Storytelling Event” at the Museum

July 28 @ 3:00 pm - 5:00 pm

Join the Historians for “Once upon a Township…Storytelling Event” on Sunday, July 28th from 3-5PM at the Lebanon Township Museum. Our guest speaker is life-long resident Bruce Sliker, former Mayor, Air Force veteran, Grange member, pilot and all around good guy.

When asked to speak at our storytelling event, Bruce replied, “What am I going to talk about?” His daughter told him, “Anything! You’re one of the oldest around that grew up here.”

So, come listen to Bruce talk about the airport in his yard, getting kicked off the school bus and other shenanigans he and his brothers did to the point it’s a surprise they survived childhood.

Storytelling links us to our past and provides a glimpse into our future. We use storytelling as a way to pass down customs, history and heritage. Through our events, we pay tribute to the early beginnings of our community so future generations can continue the legacy. Come listen to stories, learn, and maybe even share YOUR family stories of life in Lebanon Township. It’s a chance to recall a moment from your life or just listen to some good stories!
