Tracy W. Messer of Peterborough, NH has been sharing his love of history with people of all ages throughout the course of his personal and professional life. After graduating from Dickinson College with a double-major in Psychology and Spanish, Tracy received his master's degree in Counseling from Colgate University and then his Accreditation in Public Relations (APR) working in both the high-technology and healthcare fields.

It was in September 1928 that President Coolidge delivered his eloquent impromptu speech after touring Vermont by train to see the recovery efforts following the devastating floods of 1927. In honor of its 90 th anniversary, Tracy Messer will explain how the world came to know the "brave little state of Vermont" through his first-person portrayal of our 30th President of the United States.
