And then the rains came...one of the most photographed disasters of all time occurred right here in Dayton, Ohio. Nancy Horlacher, Dayton Metro Library's Local History Librarian, will share with you some of the original photographs, posters, maps and more from the 1913 Flood Collection.

I have read a lot about the flood and have seen some of the pictures.  This sounds like a great program and I will attend if my schedule allows.  If you are interested in local history, this is a "must attend" program.
