You may know that CET has been collecting memories of the 1937 Flood. Next week on our special Flood webpage you will find the results: video, written memories, photographs and even music. We appreciate everyone who has contributed. A special thanks to Tim Kraus at Hughes Center High School for Teaching and Technology, who inherited an original 16mm film of the flood and allowed us to transfer it to video. It was quite the adventure trying to track down a 16mm projector, but another one of our area schools was able to loan us one. Thanks to Dave Reder and Lakota West High School for the loaner! To get a preview of some Flood stories, visit my previous blog entry on the flood and read the comments submitted.

At 9pm on Friday, Jan. 19, CET will air 1937 Flood: A Look Back, which contains original flood footage and interviews focusing on how the community – especially businesses – dealt with the flood and its aftermath.

We are pleased to be able to use our media services to give you a well-rounded look at this important event in Greater Cincinnati’s history. Tell us what you think. What did you enjoy? What did you want to know more about? What other topics should we be examining? Watch for my blog entry on Jan. 19 and please take a moment to comment … or feel free to email CET. We look forward to hearing from you. –Patsy
