Our Town Stories to discuss Pearl Harbor

| December 10, 2019

COSHOCTON – Pearl Harbor, the next topic for the Johnson-Humrickhouse Museum’s Our Town Stories, will be Thursday, Dec. 12 at noon. Were you or your loved ones called to serve our country after this fateful event? What was it like on the home front hearing of the attack? How did life change after that “date which will live in infamy”? Dec. 7, 1941 marked the entrance of the United States into World War II after the U.S. Naval Base Pearl Harbor endured a devastating surprise attack by Japanese forces. Come share your memories about Pearl Harbor during this hour-long discussion.

JHM’s Our Town Stories gathering occurs monthly on the second Thursday of the month at noon. The conversation animates “the old days” as we conjure up memories, share personal stories, and recall Coshocton County as it once was. All are welcome to participate, whether you grew up in Coshocton or not. The atmosphere is casual, and the discussion is always informative, fun and surprising. Admission for the program is free, and beverages and cookies will be provided. Bring your sandwich and make the most of your lunch break.

There will be no Our Town Stories in the months of January and February due to museum renovations. For more information, contact the Johnson-Humrickhouse Museum at 740-622-8710 or jhmuseum@jhmuseum.org. The Johnson-Humrickhouse Museum is located at 300 N. Whitewoman Street, Coshocton. The museum is open Tuesday through Sunday, noon to 4 p.m. After Memorial Day, the hours are noon – 5 p.m. daily.
