Carl Sandburg Home Update

The Aces tour of the Carl Sandurg National Historic Site in Flat Rock is Friday, March 23. Our tour time is 10:15 am, and we are supposed to arrive 30 mins early (i.e. arrive around 9:45 am)

Denise and I went to to Flat Rock last weekend for another event, and at the speed limit it takes 1:45 to get there. So everyone would need to leave around 8 am to get there on time.

Barbara Hart has offered to drive her van so everyone could carpool. Please contact Barbara at 488-3878 (or pbjhart1@verizon.net) if you are interested in carpooling.

The tour costs $5 for adults (children under 16 are free). Plan on bringing a sack lunch, and dress appropriately for walking around outside.


Did You Know? Carl Sandburg, who won two Pulitzer prizes and entertained heads of state, presidents, and Hollywood movie stars, only formally graduated from the eighth grade. He attended college classes for four years, but never received a degree.
