A History Program – “A Nice Place to Visit”

April 16 @ 7:00 pm 8:00 pm

At the historic Gold Hill Hotel in Gold Hill.

Join local historians and former residents of Death Valley, David & Gayle Woodruff as they take a light hearted look at how one of the hottest, driest, and most “why would-anyone-go-there?” places on Earth, became a full blown…five-star tourist sensation. With a blend of insider memories, colorful characters, and extensive research the Woodruffs journey from early daredevil motorists and dust covered prospectors to luxury resorts, Hollywood escapades, and the unique charm that still defines Death Valley National Park today. It’s a warm, witty and detailed celebration of the people who brought hospitality to a place where even the thermometers need a vacation. A free 55-minute slides how. No reservations needed. Call David for more information. (760) 920-8061
