Riordan Mansion Lunchtime Lecture: The Story of Flagstaff’s Thorpe Park

Riordan Mansion Lunchtime Lecture: The Story of Flagstaff’s Thorpe Park

Many local streets, buildings and public places are named for notable pioneers and families from the past. But what about Thorpe Park? Who was Thorpe?
Jane Jackson will introduce you to a remarkable figure from Flagstaff’s past. He was a Civil War hero who lived here for only two years but made such a big impression that our first city park was given his name. Join us to learn the story.

Space is limited. Reserve your spot online at https://azstateparks.com/reserve/Activities/Search.aspx or call 928-779-4395 for additional information and same day availability. The presentation will be free thanks to Riordan Action Network.
