I worked with John Haymond at the Mower County Historical Society to apply for a Minnesota Legacy Grant. The project I proposed was to perform a series of oral history interviews about Lyle from the 1930s to present focusing on what is no longer there and what has changed. There is not much written history from those time periods and the number of people with memories from the earliest periods is dwindling. It takes 60 days to get an answer and if it is not approved we can re-apply for the next round in April.
