Did you know Owatonna was home to a German prisoner of war camp during World War II? Jerry Ganfield shares some information about the camp, which was on land held by the Cashman family, and some information about the Steele County Historical Society’s display.

New episodes featuring Rice and Steele county history are posted to the Power96 YouTube channel and power96radio.com each Sunday at noon, with information courtesy of the Rice and Steele county historical societies. You also can find previous episodes of A Look Back and Will Jerry Eat It?, as well as other videos on the Power 96 YouTube channel. Subscribe and follow Power 96 on YouTube to stay up-to-date on our newest shows!

If you have a topic you'd like to learn more about, let us know! Email tamara.gruhot@townsquaremedia.com and we'll pass your requests to the historical societies to consider for presentation.
