Dust Bowl Era Presentation: “Black Sunday, April 14, 1935, was the day of the worst duster of them all. The storm carried twice as much dirt as was dug out of the earth to create the Panama Canal. The canal took seven years to dig, the storm lasted a single afternoon. More than 300,000 tons of Great Plains topsoil was airborne that day.” (Taken from The Worst Hard Time by Timothy Egan). Come join the Open Hearts class on Sunday, May 20th, 10:45 am in the Village Commons to relive the Dust Bowl era through recorded images, folk songs performed by Richard Brack and the sharing of their childhood memories of this epic time in the history of the Great Plains by two of our class members.
