The Big Fill is not a mass grave; it is Centre County's own Horseshoe Curve located up the escarpment of the Allegheny Front to 2046-foot Emigh's Gap. Using a power point presentation that includes numerous photos, Luther Gette will tell the story of the many wrecks that occurred on or near the Big Fill. A song about the Irish laborers on the T&C and a poem about the Big Fill itself will round out the talk.
