Lincoln Bicentennial Coalition Hosts Get Together with Lincoln and Roosevelt

Teaming two famous presidents together in a dialogue about their Presidencies is a major production for the DuPage Lincoln Bicentennial Coalition. Saturday, March 7, from 2:00 P.M. to 4:00 P.M., Abraham Lincoln and Franklin Delano Roosevelt “get together" for a visit at the Glen Ellyn History Center, 800 N. Main Street in Glen Ellyn. Will they talk about the Great Wars (Civil and World War I), the Great Depression, or political views? Both men lived during turbulent times in history. This is a discussion no one should miss. A $3.00 admission charge will be collected at the door the afternoon of the program.
