President Gordon B. Hinckley is scheduled to speak at the Handcart Commemoration Fireside on Sunday, June 11. The program, which will originate from the campus of the University of Iowa in Iowa City, will be broadcast over the Church satellite system, BYU Television and KBYU-TV that evening at 6 o'clock, MDT.
A notice on www.lds.org says those with a broadband Internet connection and a Windows operating system can watch the broadcast via computer at www.byu.tv.
The meeting is the finale for a three-day celebration — sponsored in part by the Church and Brigham Young University — to be held in Iowa City June 9-11, featuring scholarly presentations and family events commemorating the overland journey of thousands of early converts who set out from that locale beginning in 1856 to cross the Great Plains to Salt Lake City.
