Many local streets, buildings and public places are named for notable pioneers and families from the past. But what about Thorpe Park? Who was Thorpe?
Jane Jackson will introduce you to a remarkable figure from Flagstaff’s past. He was a Civil War hero who lived here for only two years but made such a big impression that our first city park was given his name. Join us to learn the story.
The presentation will be free thanks to Riordan Action Network.
