Historian nominee vows to expand Livermore school history program
Summary
Mister Kasky accepted a nomination to serve as Livermore’s city historian and said he will expand the Livermore Heritage Guild’s third‑grade “history mobile” and other youth programs to bring local history to students.
Mister Kasky accepted a nomination to serve as Livermore’s city historian and told the council he plans to expand local-history education for children. "I'm honored by the nomination from HPC, and, I'm honored to serve the city to honor its history," he said.
Kasky outlined past city historians’ contributions, citing Gary Drummond’s history talks and walks, Anne Homan’s reference work "Livermore A to Z," and Don Meeker’s frequent council remarks. He said his priority is bringing history into schools and noted that the Livermore Heritage Guild’s "history mobile" visits third-grade classrooms, a program he intends to grow.
A council member praised Kasky’s work and said volunteers are working to relocate a historic schoolhouse to the city for preservation. The presiding official also noted upcoming community anniversaries and encouraged residents to watch for related events.
The exchange occurred during the council’s regular meeting; no formal vote on the appointment was recorded in the meeting transcript.
