We had some more kiddos visiting the History Center
tonight. Pike County Girl Scout Troops 211 and 296 visited the History Center
to work on the Bicentennial Patch this evening. They learned some neat information about Pike County and some songs from the turn of the century. They also learned how to play some old time games children used to play such as jacks and tic-tac-toe.</div>

The History Center is having a pork chop dinner on
Saturday May 7th from 11 a.m. - 2 p.m. The cost is $10 and is being prepared by
the Moose Lodge members in Petersburg. All proceeds will be used for a new roof
at the History Center. Hopefully we'll reach our goal. Please call one of the

Zebulon the Bison, named after Zebulon Pike, is one of Indiana's Bicentennial Bison. Through United Way, each county was available to sponsor a bison for their community. Local artists could paint the bison and have them on display in celebration of the Bicentennial year for Indiana. Zeb the Bison arrived tonight from his previous home in Nebraska. He will be on display for about a week before heading off to be clear coated and then out to Pike Central for his new artsy coat. Be on the lookout for Zeb!<br />

A few of us volunteers had a late night work session cataloging some new items into the History Center. There was a prediction of flurries with no accumulation. The flurries are in the first photo. By the time we were done and packing up, we noticed the "no accumulation". </div>

business which included not only a soda and ice-cream shoppe but a restaurant which
served plate lunches as well. The bakery items included "breadstuff daily,
Charlotte, Russe, Captain, fancy, decorated and wedding cakes, rolls, buns,
jellies and numerous delicacies, and a specialty is made of

<div style="text-align: center;">
Indiana's bicentennial is being marked with a new forever stamp. Known as the Indiana Statehood Stamp, it features a photo of a sunset over cornfields near Milford, Indiana. The photo was taken by Michael Matti, a native of Milford, Indiana. Derry Noyes of Washington, DC was the art director for the stamp. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">

<div style="text-align: center;">
The stamp will be released and dedicated during the bicentennial year.</div>

In 2016 we will be celebrating the Bicentennial year for
the state of Indiana and also of Pike County. Pike County was the first county
formed after Indiana became a state. You may hear references of Legacy Projects
sponsored by the Indiana Bicentennial Commission throughout the upcoming year. One of those projects is the Indiana Bicentennial Barn Quilt. They were asking for a 6 inch block (finished
size) from each county. As of several days ago there were 6 counties that they still
needed a quilt block from and Pike County was one of them. With not much time
to plan, a local barn was selected that we had a photograph of. The
quilt square was put together this morning with one cutting, one sewing, and
another giving encouragement. The block is literally in the mail on the way to
the State House. </div>

The Lemmon Barn is a kit barn and was put on a boat in
Portersville, Indiana. It was brought down the river to Petersburg, Indiana and
erected on the property of Shelby Clay Lemmon at 1104 Vincennes Ave c. 1890. </div>
