[January 09, 2018]   ELKHART - The Elkhart Historical Society announces the return of the ever popular Karl Luthin, DVM, to the Dinner Lecture podium, Friday January 26, at 5:30pm, at the Wild Hare Café in Horsefeathers Shop, Elkhart Illinois.

“Dr. Karl” will regale us with the challenges of training horses for the movies. Luthin’s credentials are numerous from both the professional veterinarian standpoint but also from the aspect of the big screen as a reenactor. Some of the movies which Luthin has been a part of are: Gods and Generals”, “Glory”, The “John Adams”, “Into the West” mini-series, “Gettysburg”, “Cold Mountain”, and most recently providing a tremendous amount of equipment as well as the horse Daniel Day Lewis rode in “Lincoln”.

As those who have attended past lectures given by this fascinating man can attest, it will hold the audience, right through the question and answer session following the talk.

Tickets to the lecture will include dinner. The planned menu will offer the choice of Beef Bourguignon or Baked Crusted Chicken Breast. Both entrees come with mashed potatoes, baby carrots and green beans, roll and dessert.
