The Sister Bay Historical Society hosts The Story of Masterfreeze at 7:00 pm on Thursday, October 3 in the historic Koessl Barn, at the Corner of the Past Museum, 10310 Fieldcrest Road, Sister Bay.

Expanding on the book, Gibraltar graduate Linda Beckstrom will speak about her grandfather’s business which operated on Sister Bay’s main street for 21 years.

The presentation will run 30 to 40 minutes, and includes items not in the book. The community is invited to share memories and stories from family members who worked for the company. Photographs would be especially appreciated. Send info by email.

The history talk is free. The book will be available for purchase. A portion of the sales goes to the Sister Bay Historical Society. Preview of the book.

The presentation will be videotaped and available on YouTube@SisterBayHistoricalSociety
