Olympia, An Origin Story by Chris Staudinger
What was Olympia before it was our state’s capital? How did it rise to power, and how was it betrayed? These questions and more will be answered in this virtual tour of historic Olympia. Chris Staudinger, operator of  Pretty Gritty Tours in Tacoma, will tell the history of downtown Olympia’s bumpy beginnings, taking us down its streets and alleys and showing us cool things to do in downtown Olympia’s historic district. You’ll hear the tales of the indigenous hunters, railroad tycoons, brew masters, lawmakers, and artists that called Olympia home.  Olympia Genealogical Society virtual meeting, Thursday, November 12, 7:00 pm   events@OlyGenSoc.org  or 360-754-6230
