Oregon and the Great Missoula Floods

Bob Setterberg

Oregon Historical Society Community Speakers Bureau

10:00 AM - 12:00 PM PST

Friendly House & Zoom

From FH. About 15,000 years ago, huge floods broke from gigantic ice dams in Montana and raced to the Pacific Ocean with flow rates ten times greater than all the world's rivers today, to shape the landscape of the Pacific Northwest including the Columbia River Gorge, Portland, and the Willamette Valley. Bob Setterberg, a long-time member of the Oregon Historical Society Community Speakers Bureau and a Volunteer Museum Educator, explains these events in a 75-minute visual presentation. His mantra is, "History is not only a study of the past, it is also an explanation of the present."

What is Humanism?

Humanism is a way of life that guides us to be well and to do good without relying on anything supernatural. It's a progressive philosophy that embraces reason, compassion, and the pursuit of knowledge.

We welcome atheists, agnostics, truth-seekers, and anyone interested in exploring ethical living, critical thinking, and community building based on humanist principles.
