We see our website as an Interpreter’s House – Sidewalks Into History, which introduces visitors to people, places and events that reveal our rich and diverse history.

Pioneer adventures passed through these parts on their way to the western sea, many settled here and left their stamp on the face of the land. These are stories to be told, with the advent of this website we hope to assist teachers to integrate this multi-cultural material into their classrooms thereby providing an appreciation of the development of our country, a country we all share for America is all the things we are in the course of this adventure.
