The Historic Preservation Commission put up panels, markers, and maps at sites around town to tell Boone's history to residents and the college students who cycle through here every four years. New discoveries keep turning up, and now they are readable on the ground instead of lost to whoever knows where. Physical history beats a PDF on a website. Especially when it gets you out there walking around and experiencing the town.
