Just like the local folks pictured in the accompanying photo did 110 years ago, we hope you are planning to cruise into Gibbon for Old Settlers Day on April 7, 2026. Activities begin at 1:00 pm when the Gibbon Heritage Center opens for tours, research, refreshments and celebration of Gibbon's 155th anniversary. The evening program begins at 7:00 pm with roll call of the descendants. The opening segment will be followed by an entertaining presentation by Paul Siebert entitled "Echoes of an Era".
