McMenamins Elks Temple and the Washington State Historical Society invite you to see the film The Maury Island Incidenthttp://www.mauryislandincident.com/. Presented by filmmakers Steve Edmiston and Scott Schaefer. Participate in a Q & A after. Based on declassified FBI documents, The Maury Island Incident tells the incredible forgotten story of Harold Dahl, who on June 21, 1947, alleged a UFO sighting over Puget Sound, WA. This event sparked "the summer of the saucers," the modern era of UFO obsession, the first appearance of "Men in Black" and a governmental battle over UFO sighting jurisdiction reaching directly to FBI Executive Director J. Edgar Hoover.
History Pub is FREE. Food can be purchased at any of the on-site McMenamins restaurants and brought into the Spanish Ballroom. There will be a bar available in the room for beverages.
