Support of Q’emiln Quest’ appreciated

On behalf of the membership and board of the Post Falls Historical Society, I would like to extend special thanks to the following for their support of the recent “Q’emiln Quest” as part of National Historic Preservation Month in Post Falls.

The city of Post Falls, Mayor Clay Larkin, the Parks and Recreation Department, Linden Lampman, Post Falls School District 273, Becky Ford and Barney Brewton, the Coeur d’Alene Tribe, Raymond Brinkman, Felix Aripa, Joe and Daisy Mullen and family, the Rose Creek Sunset Singers, Post Falls Historical Society members and board of directors, Awards Etc., Pro Sound and the Idaho Humanities Council.

We were happy to share this outdoor education opportunity with the fourth-grade students of Seltice Elementary, Prairie View Elementary, Ponderosa Elementary, Mullan Trail Elementary and the Post Falls Christian Academy.

In order for our history to survive, it must be shared and passed down to our children. Thank you for sharing our oldest history. We appreciate the hard work, perseverance and abilities of those who have lived here before us.
