#OTD - On November 14, 1969, Apollo 12 launched from KSC complex in Florida. Did you know that the launch vehicle was hit by lightning twice as it ascended? Despite the initial issue, Astronauts Charles Conrad, Alan Bean, and Richard Gordan were able to complete their mission.
Happy National Louisiana Day! Louisiana is popular for its cuisine, music, and boisterous festivities that occur year-round. After all, the unofficial state motto, “laissez les bon temps rouler”, is Cajun-French for “let the good times roll”!
#Onthisday in 1916 - Jeannette Rankin, the first woman in the U.S. House of Representatives, was elected to Congress. She made her first speech on the House floor in early 1917 (pictured).
Happy All Saints Day! The celebration dates back to the 4th century C.E. All Saints' Day, also called All Hallows' Day, is the central day in the season of Allhallowtide—a three day Christian celebration that honors martyrs, saints, and departed Christians.
We've been honored to collaborate with the City of Virginia Beach and their stakeholders since 2020 and are so excited to see their interpretive offerings at the Thoroughgood, Lynnhaven, and Francis Land Houses continue to expand and grow!
