Happy 100th, Seckatary Hawkins!

2018 is the 100th anniversary of the first publication of a Seckatary Hawkins kid's story, written by Covington native Robert Franc Schulkers

These stories, with Northern Kentucky and the Licking River as the backdrop, were eventually turned into books and a radio show. The author's great-niece, Diane Schneider, is organizing the centennial celebration, including a riverboat ride, and joins John Kiesewetter with all the details.

John Kiesewetter, who has covered television and media for more than 35 years, has been working for Cincinnati Public Radio and WVXU-FM since 2015.
