Lunch Bunch At First United Methodist Church Minden, Louisiana




Dorcheat Historical Association Museum Director Schelley Brown spoke to the First United Methodist Church (Lunch Bunch Group) in Minden, Louisiana on Wednesday November 5th, 2008 at their monthly noon meeting. The topic was the importance of historic preservation in our area. The importance of now having the museum available to consolidate all the preservation efforts was relayed to the crowd. A invitation was extended to everyone attending the luncheon for a free tour of the museum following the program. Several lunch attendees took the museum tour offer and arrived at the museum for their free tour later in the day. All were most impressed with the quality of our Webster Parish Museum.
