👻 Did we find any ghosts in the basement? Watch and see! 😂🔦

Antonia and I took the Council Bluffs Public Library ghost-hunting kit for a little spin in this VERY old building, right where my office is! We didn’t catch any paranormal activity, but we had fun giving it a try!

And THAT’S one of the things I love about our library! ❤️ Did you know you can check out all kinds of unexpected things for FREE with your library card? From ghost-hunting kits to trying something like pickleball before investing in equipment, the library makes it easy to explore something new!

📚 Your library card might open the door to a whole new adventure. What will YOU discover?

councilbluffslibary.org to check out this fun Ghost Hunting Kit! Council Bluffs Public Library

👻📚 Ready to get a little spooky at the library?

The Council Bluffs Public Library has some seriously interesting things happening this October — and we're talking ghosts, paranormal investigations, historic cemeteries, walking tours AND a ghost-hunting kit you can actually check out with your library card! 👻

Join Peggie Sweet and as Library Director Antonia Krupicka-Smith today at 7:50 AM AND again at 5:20 PM for , brought to our community by the Iowa West Foundation!

👻 First up — Paranormal in the Metro!

On October 12 at 6:30 PM, the library is hosting a presentation on Paranormal in the Metro and ghost hunting, where you can learn more about what it takes to become a paranormal investigator.

And if you'd rather experience some of Council Bluffs' history on foot, there are two upcoming walking tours!

🪦 October 19 at 6:00 PM — Fairview Cemetery
Explore some of the history surrounding one of Council Bluffs' historic cemeteries. Registration is required, so head to CouncilBluffsLibrary.org to reserve your spot.

👻 October 29 at 5:00 PM — Squirrel Cage Jail
Another chance to explore Council Bluffs history on foot — and perhaps wonder what stories might still be lingering around one of our city's most unusual historic landmarks! Registration is also required through CouncilBluffsLibrary.org.

And here's where things get REALLY fun…

🔎 The library has a ghost-hunting kit you can check out with your library card!

That's right — you can actually take the investigation home with you. The kit includes an EMF meter and even a GoPro camera, along with instructions, giving you some tools to explore the paranormal for yourself.

And Council Bluffs has plenty of history to investigate! The library has a long history of stories surrounding the old Carnegie Library, which is now the Union Pacific Railroad Museum, and there are certainly plenty of historic places around town that could make you curious about what you might discover — including the Squirrel Cage Jail. You can check the library's website to see if the ghost-hunting kit is currently available for checkout.

🧠 And, of course, we've got another Council Bluffs History Trivia Question for you, too! Because around here, learning our history can sometimes lead to some pretty unexpected discoveries. 😉

So whether you're interested in becoming a paranormal investigator, taking a historic walking tour, checking out a ghost-hunting kit or simply testing your Council Bluffs history knowledge, the library has plenty to explore this October!

📻⚾ SWEET 98 THROWBACK!!! ⚾📻

Okay, Omaha...I need your help with this one!

I found this old Sweet 98 team photo and I would LOVE to figure out WHO EVERYONE IS!

I’m not even positive what year this was — I'm thinking mid-'90s maybe??? And while there are definitely a lot of gloves in this picture, I'm going to let somebody else tell me exactly what team/event this was! 😂

HERE'S THE CHALLENGE: Can we identify EVERY person in this photo?

If you recognize someone, name them in the comments, tell me where they are in the photo — front row, back row, third from the left, etc. — and TAG THEM if you can!

And PLEASE share this post, especially with your Omaha friends and former Sweet 98 listeners. Let's see how far we can send this picture and whether we can track down the entire team!

I have a feeling there are some GREAT stories behind this photo, too...so if you were there, I want to hear those as well! ❤️

Who do you recognize?? I will start Jim Snyder AKA Lonesome Roads-back row 3rd from the left with the blue NAPA hat on.
