Name our Carousel Horse
A year ago this little carousel horse was donated to Edgar County Historical Society. It was once part of Glenn Barr’s carousel, last seen on the Paris square in 1941. He needs a name! Maybe a name inspired by Edgar County or its history. Email the proposed name, why you like that name, youth or adult, and your phone number to edgarcountyhs@gmail.com. Include whether you are Youth (under 18) or Adult.
