SUMMARY:Riding the Highways in the Family Car Lecture presented by Susan S. Rugh
DESCRIPTION:Park City Museum is proud to present Riding the Highways in the Family Car Lecture presented by Susan S. Rugh on Wednesday\, April 18\, 2018 from 5-6pm at the Education and Collections Center located at 2079 Sidewinder Drive.   \nThe family vacation was a middle-class ritual for Americans blessed by postwar prosperity in the mid-20th century.   Route 66 was one of many “ribbons of highway” that facilitated long distance travel in the family car.  Rugh will entertain us with stories of family vacations past–where people stayed\, the sights they saw\, and how they kept the children in the back seat happy. \nSusan Sessions Rugh is dean of Undergraduate Education at Brigham Young University. She holds a B.A. in History from BYU\, and earned a Ph.D. from the University of Chicago in American History.  Rugh has been a professor of history at BYU for over 20 years. Her most recent book is Are We There Yet?  The Golden Age of American Family Vacations\, which received national attention for its nostalgic yet hard-hitting portrayal of road trips in postwar America. Her current book project\, No Vacancy:  The Rise and Decline of American Motels\, is a cultural history of roadside lodging from the old mom-and-pop tourist courts to today’s landscape of family-owned corporate franchises and quirky independently-owned motels.   A Utah native\, she and her late husband\, Thomas F. Rugh\, are the parents of three sons\, and grandparents to ten children.  She is a member of the church choir and teaches Sunday School. She enjoys modern art museums\, knitting\, canoeing\, and taking photos of decrepit motels on her travels around the country.   \nPark City Museum is honored to host NRG! Exhibits’ America’s Road: The Journey of Route 66 exhibition. This exhibit shares the history of and fascination with one of the world’s most famous highways. On exhibit through May 6\, 2018\, America’s Road: The Journey of Route 66 includes photographs\, narrative\, music\, and objects from the Route 66 heyday. It is appropriate for all ages.

SUMMARY:Riding the Highways in the Family Car Lecture presented by Susan S. Rugh
DESCRIPTION:Park City Museum is proud to present Riding the Highways in the Family Car Lecture presented by Susan S. Rugh on Wednesday\, April 18\, 2018 from 5-6pm at the Education and Collections Center located at 2079 Sidewinder Drive.  The family vacation was a middle-class ritual for Americans blessed by postwar prosperity in the mid-20th century.   Route 66 was one of many “ribbons of highway” that facilitated long distance travel in the family car.  Rugh will entertain us with stories of family vacations past–where people stayed\, the sights they saw\, and how they kept the children in the back seat happy.Susan Sessions Rugh is dean of Undergraduate Education at Brigham Young University. She holds a B.A. in History from BYU\, and earned a Ph.D. from the University of Chicago in American History.  Rugh has been a professor of history at BYU for over 20 years. Her most recent book is Are We There Yet?  The Golden Age of American Family Vacations\, which received national attention for its nostalgic yet hard-hitting portrayal of road trips in postwar America. Her current book project\, No Vacancy:  The Rise and Decline of American Motels\, is a cultural history of roadside lodging from the old mom-and-pop tourist courts to today’s landscape of family-owned corporate franchises and quirky independently-owned motels.   A Utah native\, she and her late husband\, Thomas F. Rugh\, are the parents of three sons\, and grandparents to ten children.  She is a member of the church choir and teaches Sunday School. She enjoys modern art museums\, knitting\, canoeing\, and taking photos of decrepit motels on her travels around the country.  Park City Museum is honored to host NRG! Exhibits’ America’s Road: The Journey of Route 66 exhibition. This exhibit shares the history of and fascination with one of the world’s most famous highways. On exhibit through May 6\, 2018\, America’s Road: The Journey of Route 66 includes photographs\, narrative\, music\, and objects from the Route 66 heyday. It is appropriate for all ages.

SUMMARY:J. C. Penney and His Many Utah Connections Lecture given by Linda Thatcher
DESCRIPTION:Join us for a lecture called J.C. Penney and His Many Utah Connections given by Linda Thatcher on Thursday\, May 3rd from 5-6pm at the Park City Museum Education and Collections Center located at 2079 Sidewinder Drive.  Friday\, May 9\, 1969 was proclaimed “J. C. Penney Day” by Utah’s governor\, Calvin R. Rampton. Penney was “not just passing through;” he had established and maintained his Utah connections for the past sixty years.  After graduating from high school\, James Cash Penney worked in a dry goods store in Hamilton\, Missouri\, but moved to Colorado in 1897 for health reasons.  He became involved with the Golden Rule Mercantile Company and within a decade he had acquired ownership of the company.  In 1909 he moved to Salt Lake City to set up a corporate headquarters and lived there for six years before moving to New York. In 1913\, all his stores were consolidated under the J. C. Penney banner. Linda Thatcher\, will discuss Penney’s family\, including his first wife\, Berta A. Hess\, who is buried in Salt Lake’s Mt. Olivet Cemetery and his second wife\, Mary H. Kimball\, who was born in Salt Lake City.  Her father was the mayor of Park City\, Utah.  She will also discuss his community involvement; for example\, he was a member of Wasatch Lodge #1 of the Free and Accepted Masons of Utah and often participated in their meetings.  Thatcher will also discuss the larger J. C. Penney Company which incorporated in Utah and the opening of Penney stores throughout Utah and the role they played in the local communities. Linda Thatcher earned a Bachelor of Science and Master’s Degree from Utah State University as well as a Master’s from BYU in Library Science.  She worked for Utah State History from 1976 to 2007 as the Collections Manager.  She has written several articles and co-edited two books: Differing Visions: Dissenters in Mormon History and Women in Utah History: Paradigm or Paradox?
