Kori Oberle, member of Whitewater Landmarks Commission, a historian and award winning author, will be giving a guided tour of the Effigy Mounds Preserve, a Whitewater Landmark, on Saturday, November 12 at 10 a.m.

The public is invited to attend. The meeting spot will be in front of the green Effigy Mounds Preserve sign on the west side of Indian Mound Park Way. The tour will take about 30-40 minutes, and just 3 of the 13 mounds will be somewhat visible.

Oberle spoke at the Whitewater Effigy Mounds Preserve presentation on Monday evening at the Irvin L. Young Memorial Library. Whitewater residents spoke of their concern about the current state of the preserve.

Oberle stated the preserve is only one third of the way accessible due to overgrowth.
