This February, we are taking a look at Dark La Crosse Stories a podcast/videocast produced by the La Crosse Public Library Archives in collaboration with the La Crosse Tribune. In 2020, Fox 25|48 began to reimage the Dark La Crosse Stories content as dramatized historical documentaries in a production called Rivertown. For Activity #2 this month, we are going to watch at least one of the Rivertown documentaries (they are each less than 30 minutes long). Below, we have listed your many options for viewing Rivertown.
