Sturgis Public Library • Sturgis

In honor of Veteran’s Day, on Friday, November 20th, Tim Velder will be giving the program “Sailing for the brand: The USS Wyoming (BB-32).” This Teddy Roosevelt-era battleship was a record-setting and forgotten dreadnaught for two world wars. Find out more about the colorful and critical history of the Naval flagship and a few of its personnel.

History at High Noon is a program on the third Friday of the month (October and November, January through May). We meet at noon in the Community Room of the Sturgis Public Library.

History at High Noon is co-sponsored by the Sturgis & Meade County Historical Society.

All History at High Noon programs are live streamed on the library’s YouTube channel at
