National Park Service (NPS) independent consultant David Kroese will be the guest speaker at the next meeting of the Lawrence County Historical Society.
He will present a program entitled "The Civil War in our National Park System."

He conducts NPS seminars across the country and has also written a book on the national park system.
The meeting is scheduled for Monday, July 28th at 7 p.m. at the History Center located in downtown Lawrenceville. It is free and open to the public.
