The Manitowoc County Historical Society has announced its fall Hungry for History series program lineup. The Hungry for History Series, now in its 10th year, features a lecture style program and a catered meal to follow.
The first fall program, “Local History Mysteries”, will be held on Thursday, October 13. In this program museum archivists will share some of the more peculiar stories from Manitowoc County, including an alligator in Clarks Mills, a runaway train, and Al Capone in a car accident in Cato.

Lots of fun will be had by all and prizes are given to the top 3 players/teams.
