Whorehouse Days" Festival Denounced

GILBERT, Minn. - Promoting this town's proud history is one thing. Naming the town's festival Gilbert Whorehouse Days is another thing entirely.

A group of angry citizens showed up at a City Council meeting Tuesday to protest the event. The festival's name refers to a time when Gilbert was known for its bars, gambling and "working girls" during Prohibition.

"The damage has been done," resident Fran Marolt said. "This is not a family-oriented activity."

The event doesn't include any of the activities that gave the festival its name, but City Council members still don't approve. ..................................

History is what it is, [oh gawd, did I just find the meaning of what is, is?], anyhow, we can't escape our heritage, why not celebrate it ? :-2

And imagine the living museum exhibit, or the gag picture that gets taken to school for show and tell.
