ZANESVILLE, Ohio The end to a story that the world has beenwaiting for since 1817 will be revealed this weekend at the JohnMcIntire Library in Downtown Zanesville. A Jane Austen Tea Party willbe held this Saturday at the library, where a special presentationand sneak peek at the conclusion of Austens unfinished novel willbe given. Heather Phillips, with the library, says a televisionnetwork has created an ending for Sanditon.

Were doing itwith WOUB, who is our local PBS affiliate; and they are going topresent on Sanditonits a new show that theyre doingandits Jane Austens final unfinished novel. So, they kind offinished the series with that.

Lightrefreshmentssuch as tea sandwiches and sconeswill be served atthe tea party as attendees remember Austens legacy and enjoy herfinal work.

She did regencyromance novels and she did ita lot of the protagonists werefemale. So, it was a very feminist take for the time so I think a lotof women actually read her; but men obviously enjoy her tootheylove her. But yes, theyre always very gung-ho and spiritedprotagonists.

The Jane Austen TeaParty will take place on January 11 at 10 AM at the John McIntireLibrary. All are welcome and registration is requested for the costfree event.

Greenwood Furnace hosts Owl Prowl

GREENWOOD FURNACE Greenwood Furnace State Park is hosting an Owl Prowl at 6 p.m. Jan. 11.

The program will begin at the Visitor Center Park Office. The Owl Prowl will begin with a short talk on owls, followed by a walk outside to search for some owls. Be sure to dress for the weather outside, and bring a flashlight.

Some of the most fascinating creatures of the night are the owls. They are a group of birds known as raptors, or birds of prey, and are a major night predator of rodents and other small animals. Owls are specially equipped for silent flight. Unlike hawks and eagles, whose flapping wings can be heard, owls have specialized feathers that make their flying virtually silent. Their eyes are very large to be able to see in near total darkness. In comparison, human eyes would have to be as big as softballs to see that well. They are so large that they are fixed in the owls skull, meaning that owls have to turn their heads to see side to side.

For information about this and other park programs can be found on the parks Facebook page at fb.me/greenwoodfurnaceSP.

Park to explore

prehistoric people

GREENWOOD FURNACE At 2 p.m. Jan 12, Greenwood Furnace takes a fascinating look into the areas distant past through the story of the prehistoric people of the Juniata Valley.

The Juniata Valley has one of the oldest and best-preserved sites of known human occupation in eastern North America. Many are familiar with the later American Indians that resided in the valley, including the Susquehannocks, Shawnee, Tuscarora, Delaware (Lenape), and the valleys namesake, the Juniata (the Ona Jutta Hage).

Earlier prehistoric peoples inhabited the area for almost 10,000 years. Decades ago, a site known today as Sheep Rock Shelter was excavated in Huntingdon County, and is important because it was occupied continuously for over 8,000 years. In addition, the protected location resulted in the preservation of perishable artifacts rarely found outside of the desert southwest.
