The Macon
County Historical Society is pleased to be able to offer the book "For
Remembering Macon Athletic Events - 1899 - 1976". Lee McDowell
was a local sport enthusiast and supporter of the Macon Missouri R-1
school sports program. He created an extensive collection of local
sports memorabilia starting in 1899 and ending in 1976. This hardbound
book has 253 pages with lots of photos. The sports history starts with
photos of the Blees Academy 1899 with photos and articles from the local
newspapers of the time; such as the Macon Citizen and the Macon
Democrat. There is a section on Macon’s' first girls basketball
team in 1909. Each year is represented and it is believed that each team
of the year as well. We are pleased to offer this book for $50.00, which
includes the shipping cost. Funds raised from the sale of the book will
go towards the Museum.
