Skagway – Klondike Gold Rush National Historical Park requests assistance from the Skagway community to identify historical photos on December 14.
Park staff will bring a number of photographs from the park's collections for interested community members to share any information or stories they know about the people, places, and buildings shown in the images. Not all of the images are from the gold rush and any information will be useful. Superintendent Mike Tranel will also be attending to share information on the park sculpture project.
“Many of our photos are missing the stories behind them,” said Tranel. “We hope to tap into the immense knowledge base of our friends and neighbors to learn and share the stories more widely with all park visitors.”
The event will be held at Bites on Broadway, Wednesday December 14th from 9am-11am. Everyone is welcome to attend.
