COLTON>> On Saturday, March 11, at 2:30 p.m., the Colton Area Museum’s guest speaker program will feature Jim Wood, local historian and member of the Old Spanish Trail Association. With many stories and background information to satisfy our curiosity, Wood will bring an in-depth look into his research into the Agua Mansa Corridor. "Knowing that this is the heart and soul of the founding of the City of Colton, residents, guests and visitors are encouraged to get there early. This history will bring to life the beginnings of our city," said Colton Councilman Dr. Luis S. Gonzalez, secretary of the Colton Area Museum. Wood worked for the USDA in Riverside as a soil and water scientist for 37 years. His degree is from American River College and the University of California at Davis. Although he said he does not consider himself an historian, he has delved into the history of California where he was born and raised. He has a strong interest, and has gathered much information about local early settlements, most notably along the Agua Mansa corridor. Many of his resources are available online. Community residents and visitors alike are invited to attend the event and learn more about what the Colton Area Museum offers throughout the year. They represent a wide variety of perspectives and experiences that are not only informative, but inspirational for those who want to know more about Colton’s History – past, present and future," Gonzalez said. The CAM will also be open that day, March 11, 11a.m. – 2 p.m. providing the opportunity to see the many outstanding displays of Colton history. The CAM address is 380 N. La Cadena Dr. in Colton. Regular CAM hours are Wednesdays and Fridays from 1-4 p.m. and on Saturdays 11 a.m.-2 p.m. For more information about the museum and it programs, contact the museum at 824-8814, or Gonzalez at 213-3730
