Lake Norman was constructed between 1959 and 1964 after the Catawba River was dammed at Cowans Ford. Join us for a panel discussion with two experts on how Lake Norman came to be and what was here before it. Our panelists are Chuck McShane, author of "A History of Lake Norman: Fish Camps to Ferraris," and Jan Blodgett, a historian and the retired archivist at Davidson College who has researched pre-lake history of the region.
