Eden Prairie Historical Society
Annual Meeting (Camp Edenwood)

Thursday, April 16th 

Step back in time for an unforgettable evening of Eden Prairie history! We are honored to welcome back Minnesota Supreme Court Justice Paul Anderson as he brings to life Minnesota Supreme Court Justice Loren Collins of Civil War-era. Both men shared not only a home in Eden Prairie, but also the distinction of serving as Justices of the State of Minnesota—a remarkable connection across generations.
Through a lively interview conducted by Ron Case “Justice Collins” will share powerful stories from the Civil War period and the Indian Uprising, along with reflections on his friendships with Native Americans and the Collins family legacy.
A special honor: The front row will be reserved for Descendants of Loren Collins!
