Friends of Governor Nelson State Park Annual Meeting and Guest Speaker
Our guest speaker will be Seth Taft, Executive Director of the Friends of Wisconsin State Parks, the umbrella to over 65 nonprofit Friends groups throughout Wisconsin that are associated with a state park, forest, and/or trail. Additionally, Seth has been an active professional archaeologist since performing his first excavation in Madison in spring 2009.
Seth's talk is titled "In Effigy: An Archaeological Review of Lake Mendota and the Four Lakes Region". Seth will provide an overview of the Effigy Mound culture from approximately over 1,000 years ago, emphasizing Governor Nelson State Park and other neighboring sites, and discuss the continued cultural and sacred significance of these spaces within this specific part of present-day Wisconsin.
The Friends of Governor Nelson State Park invites its members, donors, volunteers, neighbors and the general public to this free event!
