SUMMARY:Lecture: The History and Wonders of Churchill County
DESCRIPTION:Historical Society of Dayton Valley presents “The History and Wonders of Churchill County”\, Speaker: Mel Glover: Director\, Churchill County MuseumThur.\, February 19\, 2026\, 7:00 pmDayton Valley Community Center (170 Pike Street at Logan\, Old Town Dayton)Please come to our February HSDV lecture\, which will explore the history and wonders of Churchill County. Our speaker\, Mel Glover\, will discuss its history\, including pre-history and pre-colonialism\, its early settlement\, its agricultural and economic growth\, and its life today. He will talk about Ft Churchill\, the Newlands Project\, Nevada’s last lynching\, why Maine Street Fallon is spelled with an E\, and a little bit about Naval Air Station\, Fallon. He will also be discussing his tenure as the Director of the Churchill County Museum\, some of its accomplishments\, and where he would like for the museum to progress to in the near and middle future.Mel holds a master’s degree in public history from THE Wright State University in Dayton\, Ohio. He has been a museum professional for 12 years but a life-long museums geek. As a child\, his grandmother’s mantra was\, “A bad weather day is a good day to go to a museum\,” and there were lots of good ones around Boston. He was a Civil War reenactor throughout the 150th anniversary cycle of the Civil War\, taking great joy in stinky\, black-powder smoke; cooking over a campfire; and interacting with the spectators (or ‘taters as they called them). Mel claims that he’s now far too old and fat to portray a 20-year-old private in the ranks and has mostly hung up his accoutrements (or cooter-mints in southern Ohio vernacular).Doors open at 6:30 pm with a meet and greet and light refreshments.The program begins at 7:00 pm.(For more information contact President@HSDV.org.)Open and Free to all. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n	Related
