When it rains and it pours but the good news is that y'all get to reap the benefits of all this historical talk.

As part of the Clark County Centennial, each month they are offering a historical roundtable discussion.  This month the focus is on the Early History of the most famous five mile Strip in the world, our very own Las Vegas Strip!

We've got some great panelists:

Betty Bunch, a dancer from the 1950s and 1960s and she has some great stories!

Lisa Medford, the first topless dancer on the Strip

George Stamos, writer who interviewed a number of employees who worked at the original hotels.

Peter Anthony, musician and comedian who played all the lounges back in the day!

Friday, June 5th

6:00 pm

Clark County Government Center (Bonneville and Grand Central Parkway)

Hope to see you at all three events!
