Geek Speak: "I was real once," sighed Mr. Holmes
Join us on Thursday at 4:00 p.m. in Jonas 110 for Dr. Nikki Dragone's analysis of Sherlock Holmes.
What is it about Sherlock Holmes ‐‐ a fictional anti‐hero of Victorian England ‐‐ that continues to command what Holmes’
scholar Tom Keogh rather understatedly calls “continued cultural staying power” in the 128 years since Doyle introduced
him to the world? That is what this Geek Speak seeks to explore.
Free and open to the public.

Spearfish Jacket Zone Wins Contest
The Spearfish Jacket Zone was the winner of two play tickets at the Matthews Opera House. On January 9, 2016, MOH
held a Scavenger Hunt and distributed clues to their mystery at 12 downtown locations. As folks brought in their answers
to the mystery, they were also asked to vote for the business that they thought participated the most in the event. The
Jacket Zone received the most votes. The store hid the clues throughout the store, and had the participants hunt for
them, making it even more fun for everyone. Many of the participants had not visited the store before so this was a great
way to bring them in and have them look around!! Thanks to all who participated and voted!!
