  <title>Preserving Bucyrus: Inside the Historical Society with Roy and Barb Rigdon 🎤</title>
  <description>​🎙️ Bringing Bucyrus History to Life: Prohibition Agents, Parachute Nurses &amp;amp;amp; Cemetery Walks! ​Did you know Bucyrus was home to the first female federal prohibition agent? Or that local actors are stepping into the shoes of our town's earliest settlers? ​In this episode, Scott sits down with Roy, the new Curator of the Bucyrus Historical Society, and Barb Rigdon from the Bucyrus Little Theatre, to talk about how they are teaming up to make local history jump right off the page! From Roy’s transition as a retired history teacher to his new role managing the historic Scroggs House, to Barb’s fascinating deep-dives into portraying trailblazing women like Georgia Hopley and Mary Scroggs—this episode is packed with incredible local lore. ​Plus, get your calendars ready! We’ve got a packed summer schedule of community events you won't want to miss: ​📅 May 21st: Special guest Mark Corey brings Colonel William Crawford to life. ​🎬 June 26th: Movie Night! Featuring Parachute Nurses and the story of local aviation legend Loretta Schimmoller. ​🍦 July: Community Ice Cream Social at Shines Park. ​🪦 September: The Annual Cemetery Walk! This year features early settlers, the Norton and Hopley families, and a special tribute to the 15+ Revolutionary War veterans buried right here in our county. ​Want to get involved? The Historical Society at the Scroggs House is open to the public every Friday from 1:00 PM to 4:00 PM. They are always looking for passionate volunteers, docents, and researchers. Tune in to find out how you can be a part of preserving our town's legacy! </description>
