SUMMARY:Hayden Library Lecture: Dating Erratic Boulders: How Long Ago Were the Floods?
DESCRIPTION:How do geologists know when the ice age floods actually occurred in the Spokane area? One method is to date the large flood-rafted erratic boulders. We explore the ages of the floods and the methods used to determine their dates and present newly gathered dates from the Spokane region revealing when the floods happened.  \nPresented by Glenn Cruickshank\, vice president of the Ice Age Floods Institute (IAFI)\, Cheney-Spokane Chapter\, and Dr. Jim O’Connor\, USGS \nNo registration required. Call Librarian Kathleen Kennedy with any questions at 208-772-5612 x126.

SUMMARY:Bretz Was Right: A Pre‑Birthday Floods‑Fest
DESCRIPTION:Save the date! \nOur chapter is planning a special late‑summer gathering on Saturday\, August 29\, in honor of J Harlen Bretz\, whose birthday falls just a few days later (September 2). Bretz’s groundbreaking work on the Ice Age floods reshaped the scientific understanding of the Northwest—and we think that deserves a celebration. \nWe’re still shaping the details\, but expect a relaxed\, community‑friendly event that highlights Bretz’s legacy and the remarkable landscapes he helped the world understand. More information will be posted as plans develop. \n \n \n  \nHe mapped the scablands bold and bright\,\nSaid “Floods did this!” with all his might.\nFor thirty years they told him “No”…\n’Til evidence began to flow. \nSo join us as we celebrate\nThe man who made the floods make sense —\nA pre‑birthday bash for J Harlen Bretz\,\nWho proved the skeptics wrong (immense!). \n \n
