Description

As soon as Ruth and Bev Skaggs bought their home in Don L. Dise’s brand new Boulder Hill subdivision in 1956, Bev, a skilled amateur photographer, and his wife began chronicling the development’s progress in both words and pictures. Eventually, Ruth began giving slide lectures on Boulder Hill’s history and growth to area school and civic organizations. After the couple retired and moved to Batavia in 1992, she donated her slide collection to Oswego’s Little White School Museum. In this presentation, Museum Director Roger Matile will present Mrs. Skaggs’ program on Boulder Hill’s history, which has been unseen for the past 33 years. A question and discussion session will follow the program. Proceeds will benefit the museum’s mission to protect and preserve Oswego area history. (JN)
