The Mt. Lebanon Historical Society in Gibsland, LA is a non-profit organization dedicated to preserving and promoting the history and culture of the Mt. Lebanon community. The society was founded in 1977 and has since collaborated with local historians, archaeologists, and community members to collect and preserve artifacts, documents, and photographs related to the area's rich history.

The society hosts regular events, including tours of local historic sites, lectures, and exhibits, to educate the public about the community's past. The society's museum, located in the historic Mt. Lebanon Baptist Church, displays a variety of artifacts from the 1800s and early 1900s, including clothing, tools, furniture, and photographs.

One of the society's most significant achievements has been the preservation of the Mt. Lebanon Cemetery, the final resting place of many of the area's early settlers and prominent citizens. The society has worked to restore and maintain the cemetery, which is now listed on the National Register of Historic Places.

The Mt. Lebanon Historical Society is run by a dedicated group of volunteers who are committed to preserving the community's heritage for future generations. The society welcomes visitors and offers memberships for those interested in supporting their efforts.

Wonder It was cool to see my first Carolina Wren on a long hike at an Arkansas State Park. Little did I know that a few days later in Louisiana a couple of Carolina's would adopt me. They decided to hang out under, around and inside the camper for a few hours. This guy was ready to hop inside.
