SUMMARY:Buffalo Bill and His Wild West Show
DESCRIPTION:On July 5\, 2026\, in the Betty Strong Encounter Center auditorium\, retired history professor and award winning author Don Hickey will deliver an illustrated lecture on Buffalo Bill and His Wild West Show.  Admission is free\, but freewill donations are encouraged. \nBuffalo Bill Cody had already become a national hero as a soldier\, scout\, and Indian fighter when he developed his Wild West Show to illustrate the vanishing character of the West that he had helped tame.  Seen by 50 million people on both sides of the Atlantic\, the show turned its founder and star into the most famous man in the world. \nHickey holds a PhD from the University of Illinois and is a specialist in early American history and American military history. He is best known for his books\, The War of 1812: A Forgotten Conflict (University of Illinois Press) and Nebraska Moments: Glimpses of Nebraska’s Past (University of Nebraska Press). His latest book\, Tecumseh’s War: The Epic Conflict for the Heart of America\, (Westholme Publishing) was published in 2023. \nThe Lewis and Clark Interpretive Center/Betty Strong Encounter Center was built and is sustained by the Missouri River Historic Development Organization as a gift of history to the community.

SUMMARY:Then & Now Duo
DESCRIPTION:On Sunday\, July 12\, 2026\, at 2:00pm in the Betty Strong Encounter Center\, the “Then & Now” duo comprised of singer-guitarist Barbara Sabella and fiddler-violinist Beth Preheim will bring new life to oldies. Admission is free\, but freewill donations are encouraged. \nThey will play many songs by the Gershwins\, Rodgers & Hart\, Hoagy Carmichael\, and more. Many of those tunes were popularized by singers like Etta James\, Frank Sinatra\, Johnny Mathis\, Louis Armstrong\, and Carly Simon. \nBarbara likes to sing pop\, country\, old time folk\, blues\, gospel\, and jazz. The words matter\, and she smooths out the music to honor the stories that the songs tell. She regularly plays with a string band in Canton\, SD\, a hub of the South Dakota Friends of Traditional Music crowd. She and cohorts frequently “practice in public” to bring music to folks who might not get out that much. \nBeth picked up her first violin in 1972 in the Congo. She plays fiddle in various bands across all genres: Celtic\, Americana\, cow punk\, rock\, blues\, jazz\, and old-time and Scandinavian fiddle. She has taught both classical violin and various fiddle styles to more than 100 students. Beth also founded a ukulele club and adds vocals\, ukulele and other folk instruments in a performing ukulele group called the Prairie Waves. \n The Lewis and Clark Interpretive Center/Betty Strong Encounter Center was built and is sustained by the Missouri River Historic Development Organization as a gift of history to the community.
