#FlashbackFriday with the Historical Society: Dog Days of Summer circa 1900

It’s time once again for #FlashbackFriday with the Whitewater Historical Society.

This photograph is another from the Scholl collection of glass plate negatives taken between 1895-1910. Several of these glass plates are identified as being taken at Lake Koshkonong, and this is probably one of them. Taken around 1900, the photo shows a boating excursion with the participants enjoying wading in the lake. A nice outing during the “dog days” of summer!

Join us next week for more from the Whitewater Historical Society.
