Follow the Flume: The logging industry that shaped the valley

On Sunday March 19th, 2017 , the Sanger Historical Society participated in the Fresno County Libraries “Follow the Flume” series, by hosting a screening of Felling the Giants.  There was standing room only as the video was shown in the library meeting room. Felling the Giants is a video locally produced many years ago, that details the history of the lumber industry as it relates to Sanger’s History.  Following the screening, guests walked next door to the Sanger Depot to tour the museum.
