Second Saturday "Linwood
Ice House Museum" with Rachael Walsh 1:00pm One hundred years ago this 320-square-foot building in Linwood held ice for cooling, and in 1980 it

that Touch Liquor Shall Never Touch Mine! : How Michigan's Ladies Put an End to Demon Rum" with

trafficking and moonshine
operations, women involved in the Temperance Movement here had a harder fight than most, forcing them to seek help from well-known

and banning intoxicating liquors in the Great Lakes State.
