When Coco Irvine was 13 years old in 1927, she kept a charming diary. She loved to write and get into trouble. "I'm in deep trouble through no fault of my own" was her frequent excuse. The Irvines were among the Midwest's wealthiest families. As adults, Coco and her sister donated their late parents' home to the state of Minnesota. It's now the Governor's Residence. The diary was published by the University of Minnesota Press.

The Spring Luncheon Lecture Series is made possible by a grant provided by Prairie Lakes Regional Arts Council from the Minnesota Arts and Cultural Heritage Fund as appropriated by the Minnesota State Legislature with money from the vote of the people of Minnesota on November 4, 2008.

Tickets per luncheon are $12 for members $16 for non-members. Paid reservations due the Tuesday before each luncheon date. Space is limited. Sorry no refunds. Call the Waseca County Historical Society (507)835-7700or visit the website www.historical.waseca.mn.us or www.discoverwaseca.com
