Pioneer Spirit.

One of Whatcom County premiere historians, Dorothy Koert, wrote a series of books as well articles about pioneers around the county. We are very thankful for her recording of county history and would love to share some of her writings with you. A few of the articles were published in the Lynden Tribune as a part of the Bicentennial celebration from 1974-1976.

Do you have a pioneer spirit?

Looking Back

I've been spending some time at the Lynden Tribune looking through old papers for a project. Right now I'm spending time in the 1970s. Good stuff there.

In the early/mid 70s this sign was put up on the corner of the Hannegan Road and Sunset Drive. I love it.

I wonder what happened to this sign.
