Sounds like a very worthy endeavor;  we feel blessed to live in a state with such a rich history.  The history of Virginia is the history of the founding of this nation.

Hi Ron -- I agree with Dick Greenberg these types of events make a community -- and that's very important as I see it.

Good Morning Ron. You are right Minnesota is a great State because it promotes history and culture. There was a time when I lived in Illinois and seriously considered moving to Minnosta for that reason and because of the lakes and landscaping. I love the unique birdhouses that you handcraft in Minnesota with your own two hands!

Ron - It is great that your state supports cultural event.  I am currently working with a library here in Westchester that is doing the same thing.

Sheila Anderson What made me think of this was that a good deal of the gambling money in the state goes to this fund.  Keep on buying lottery tickets, everyone!

Endre Barath, Jr. This area was mostly settled by the Germans with a few Swedes and Norwegians thrown in.  Of course, it is a lot more diverse these days, but the heritage remains in the historic roots of the churches and other organizations, though they are welcoming to all.
