The (2nd) Symposium Cometh

Cooper sleuths: It’s getting to be that time of year again. Falling leaves. Brisk winds. Early darkness. A missing skyjacker clutching a $200,000 bag of cash….

Yep. In a few weeks, we’ll be celebrating the second annual D.B. Cooper Symposium, and the 42nd anniversary of the mysterious airplane hijacking and escape via parachute that continues to defy sleuths and gumshoes. This year’s symposium will be a special one, as our host will be the Washington State Historical Museum, and who have put on a tremendous exhibit on the hijacker (including real aft-stairs!)

I’ll be posting some more information on the Symposium events, but mark off your calendars for November 30th, the Saturday after Thanksgiving. Get a good night’s sleep because we’ll be starting early at the Washington State Historical Society (1911 Pacific Avenue, Tacoma, WA 98402.) then heading off to Ariel for the annual Cooper Days party at the Ariel Tavern. Stay tuned. More here soon.
