Time Travel Tuesday
Submitted by Aspenskier on Tue, 03/05/2013 - 11:23
With all the great snow we've had recently, we know everyone has been out on the slopes enjoying the fresh powder. If you need a bit of recovery time, we suggest a terrific way to learn more about our favorite ski town-the Aspen Historical Society's series called Time Travel Tuesdays. Tonight's program, which begins at 5:30 at the Aspen Community Church, is called "Pitkin: A County Out Of Thin Air," focuses on the creation of Pitkin County. The panel discussion includes Larry Fredrick from the Historical Society, former county commissioner Michael Kinsley and county manager John Peacock.
