Lincoln's Birthday 2013
At the invitation of "The Friends of Historic New Utrecht", Lincoln portray-er Robert Costello came to Brooklyn for a series of lectures covering the life of our 16th president from his youth to his final day at Ford's Theater.
Mr. Costello spoke to close to 400 grade school students at the New Utrecht High School in the morning.
Later that evening he spoke again at the parish house of the New Utrecht Reformed Church.
He was well received at both programs.
