#OnThisDay in 1947, President Truman signed a resolution formally and officially recognizing the Hoover Dam. This came after years of debate and name-swapping between the Boulder Dam and the #HooverDam. Learn more in this video about how the name came to be! #history #USHistory
In April 1931, President Herbert Hoover presented the prestigious Collier Trophy, which was given each year for the greatest achievement in the field of aeronautics. The trophy for 1930 was awarded to Harold F. Pitcairn for his work on the autogiro. Here's video from that day!
It's #ArborDay! We share this memory from 1932, with First Lady Lou Henry Hoover and President Herbert Hoover planting a cedar tree on the White House grounds. The tree was from "Ferry Farm" in Fredericksburg, VA, across the river where George Washington spent his boyhood days!
April is #NationalGardeningMonth! This photo was taken in 1918 showing Lou Henry Hoover, wife of U.S. Food Administrator Herbert Hoover, watching and helping Washington D.C's Girl Scouts work on the Scouts' farm. (31-1918-19, 31-1918-22, 31-1918-30)
While everyone was celebrating #WorldBookDay, we wrapped up more mystery novels read by the Hoovers! This marks our NINTH blog in this series, highlighting stories the Hoovers read for their leisure. Learn more in this Hoover Heads: hoover.blogs.archives.gov/2024/04/24/mys… #WorldBookDay2024

Lou Hoover was passionate about @girlscouts, saying: “I was a Scout years ago...when my father took me hunting, fishing and hiking in the mountains...When I learned of the [Girl Scout] movement I thought, here is what I always wanted other girls to have.” #MoreThanFirstLadies
