Akron Princeville Fire Department Needs Volunteers!!

Have
you ever thought about being a volunteer firefighter? Do you live and
or work in Princeville? Now would be the time that you turn that
thought of volunteering into a reality. The Akron-Princeville Fire Dept
is accepting applications for volunteers. We can not provide top notch
service without people to respond. Although we have an immediate need
for daytime volunteers, all applications will be considered. Please
go to apfd.com or
contact any APFD member for an application or if you have questions.
Thank You in advance for your interest in being a volunteer!!!!

Lincoln: The
Constitution and the Civil War

Black Jack Logan: Civil War
General, Senator, King-Maker
Program at the Princeville Museum
The
Princeville Heritage Museum in conjunction with the Lillie M. Evans
Library will be presenting the second program in our Lincoln series on
Tuesday, April 15th 6:30pm. This free program will be held at the
Museum. Brian Fox Ellis will introduce us to Black Jack Logan:
Civil War General, Senator, King-Maker. As one historian has
said, John A. Logan is the most important character of the 19th century
who is completely forgotten in the 21st. How does a man go from small
town lawyer to Vice Presidential Candidate? What pushed him from
becoming Abraham Lincoln's bitter rival to campaigning for Lincoln's
re-election? How does an unabashed racist and author of Illinois'
notorious Black Laws become an advocate for African American equality
and education? Spend an hour with this enigmatic character and maybe
you will better understand why Frederick Douglas once said, "If a
man like Black Jack Logan can have a change of heart then there is hope
for everyone."
This
program is provided through a grant from the IHC Road Scholars Speakers
Bureau. The Illinois Humanities Council (IHC) is supported in part by
the National Endowment for the Humanities (NEH) and the Illinois
General Assembly (through the Illinois Arts Council, a state agency),
as well as by contributions from individuals, foundations, and
corporations. Any views, findings, conclusions, or
recommendations expressed by speakers, program participants, or
audiences do not necessarily reflect those of the NEH, the IHC, our
partnering organizations or our funders.
The
exhibit will be on display at the Princeville Heritage Museum from
April 7, 2014 through May 9, 2014. Regular hours at the
Princeville Heritage Museum during this exhibit will be Mondays,
Wednesdays, Fridays & Saturdays 10am-2pm; Tuesdays from 2pm-8pm;
and Thursdays from 2pm-6pm. The exhibit is closed on
Sundays. There is no charge for admission. The Museum is
located 325 N Ostrom Avenue in Princeville, IL-15 minutes north of
Peoria. The 30,000 sq ft handicap-accessible facility features
agriculture antiques, area artifacts, genealogy research, and
more. The Akron Townhouse School, a one-room school, is located on
the Museum grounds. For more information and for booking class or
group visits, please call the Museum (309) 385-1916.
The
next programs in the series include a special tea with Mrs. Lincoln on
April 22nd 1pm (please call the Museum @ 385-1916 for reservations) and
Anti-Slavery Movement in Black & White on April 29th 6:30pm. Visit
the LME Library website at lmelibrary.org for more information on these
programs.
Lincoln: the
Constitution and the Civil War is
a traveling exhibition for libraries and was organized by the National
Constitution Center and the American Library Association Public Programs
office. The traveling exhibition has been made possible by a
major grant from the National Endowment for the Humanities. Lincoln:
the Constitution and the Civil War is based on an exhibition
of the same name developed by the National Constitution Center.
