Other happenings

In honor of Central alumni celebrating the school’s centennial, the Douglas County Historical Society has created a display honoring the school and students who attended there, and produced a play based on a teacher from Central’s past, Lulu “Dickie” Dickinson, who was fired and became the focus of a student strike supporting her. Performances begin tonight and run through Aug. 7. Evening performances begin at 7:30 p.m. with at 2 p.m. matinee Sunday at the historical society, 1101 John Ave.

The historical society’s book, “Superior Central High School from A to Z: Transcending Dreams,” written by Teddie Meronek and Kathy Laakso, is now available at the Douglas County Historical Society. Call Kathy or Barb at (715) 392-8449 for more information.

Reunion participants are also encouraged to tour Fairlawn Museum, Old Firehouse and Police Museum, Richard I. Bong Veterans Historical Center and the harbor on their own.
