Film-Related Event Tomorrow In Parkersburg

This Friday, tomorrow, there will be an event tied to the horrible events that took place in Parkersburg, Iowa: the devastating tornado and the murder of beloved Parkersburg coach Ed Thomas. This event is a book signing by the author of "The Sacred Acre", which relates to these events. Tony Wilson, a producer of a motion picture made in Iowa, "The Final Season", has acquired the rights to make a film based on this book. Tony is with the West Des Moines production company, Applied Art. Former Iowa Film Office head Wendol Jarvis will be on hard, as will Governor Branstad and Lt. Governor Reynolds. Iowa Senator Grassley will also be there. This will all occur in the Parkersburg High School Gymnasium, beginning at 6:30 p.m.
