Free film screening explores the unique Driftless Area

The Senior Resource Center in Freeport will host a free screening of "Decoding the Driftless" on Nov. 12, followed by a discussion about the geology and ecosystems of the Driftless Area. The program will run from noon to 1:20 p.m. at the center, 206 E. Stephenson St., according to a community announcement. "Decoding the Driftless" is a 60-minute film exploring the geological history and natural features of the Driftless Area. Unlike much of the Midwest, the region was not flattened by glaciers during the last Ice Age, leaving a landscape characterized by rolling hills, deep valleys, winding rivers and scenic bluffs. After the screening, participants can stay for a 15- to 20-minute question-and-answer session about the region and the features highlighted in the film. The presentation is free, and advance registration is encouraged because seating is limited, according to the announcement. To register, call the Senior Resource Center at 815-235-9777. This story was produced by reporter Nida Tazeen, NTazeen@usatodayco.com , with the assistance of Artificial Intelligence (AI).
