SUMMARY:"Vancouver Goes to the Movies" with Andy Gregg
DESCRIPTION:Since Vancouverites sat down together to watch a filming of Fitzsimmons and Corbel in 1897\, movies have held an important role as both entertainment and community connector. From the opening of the Palace Theater in 1909 to the Kiggins Theatre today\, the big screen continues to draw people from all backgrounds together for a singularly solitary and shared experience unmatched by other forms of media. Drawing on his research into the golden age of movie theaters in Vancouver\, Gregg explores Vancouver’s movie-going history with a look back at the rise and fall of the single screen theater as well the ways in which movies helped bridge social and racial divides. \nAndrew Gregg is a Vancouver native who saw his first big-screen movie at the Kiggins Theatre in 1961. After a K-12 education in Vancouver Public Schools\, Gregg graduated from Willamette University\, attended Gonzaga University School of Law\, and completed a master’s degree in public history at Washington State University. A National Board Certified teacher\, Gregg has served as Clark County Arts Commission’s chair\, and is currently a Clark County Historic Preservation Commissioner chair. Since 1973\, Gregg has written extensively about his hometown. \nThe CCHM Speaker Series is sponsored by the Clark County Historic Preservation Commission and Versa Events (formerly Wager Audio). General admission is $5; seniors and students are $4; children under 18 are $3; and the evening is free for CCHM members\, veterans\, and active-duty military personnel. \nDoors open at 5pm. Presentation begins at 7pm. Attendees are encouraged to arrive early\, as seating is limited and available on a first-come-first-served basis. \nFor more information\, contact the museum at 360-993-5679 or outreach@cchmuseum.org.

SUMMARY:From Water Wagons to Private Development: A History of Vancouver Water System
DESCRIPTION:Clark County Historical Museum’s 2022 Speaker Series continues on Thursday\, May 5th\, with “From Water Wagons to Private Development: A History of Vancouver Water System” presented by Jim Pestillo. The event will occur in-person at the Historic Covington House (4201 Main St\, Vancouver\, WA 98663). Doors open at 6 p.m. and the event begins at 7 p.m. \nClean water is key to a healthy and prosperous community. While the Pacific Northwest has an abundance of natural water sources\, as cities and townships grew so did their pressures on these natural systems. From pollution to distance\, adequate water access proved an increasingly more difficult puzzle for community leaders to solve. In this presentation\, Jim Pestillo explores the history of Vancouver’s water systems and the relationship between those systems and the City’s growth. \nJim Pestillo is a retired engineer with an interest in local history. His article “Vancouver Water Delivery 1824-1930: From Water Wagons to Private Development” (2019) and “From Stinky Streets to Sewers: An Overview of Vancouver’s Water and Sewer Systems” (2020) both appeared in Clark County (WA) History published by the Clark County Historical Society. \nThe CCHM Speaker Series is sponsored by the Clark County Historic Preservation Commission and Versa Events (formerly Wager Audio). This event will be free to the public. \nAttendees are encouraged to arrive early\, as seating is limited and available on a first-come-first-served basis. \nFor more information\, contact the museum at 360-993-5679 or outreach@cchmuseum.org.
