he 35th Annual Meeting of the Rogers Park/West Ridge Historical Society has been scheduled for Wednesday, February 10, 2010, at 7:00 pm at the Devon Bank, 6445 N. Western Ave. The meeting is still several days away, pencil in the date on your 2010 calendars so you don’t miss it.
After the exceptional 2009 Annual Meeting, we’re going to stay with that format for the 2010 meeting. As in 2009, the format will include board elections, some limited business, an educational presentation, and fellowship. If you liked this year’s meeting, you'll love next year’s meeting.
We expect to be able to provide some details regarding the May 2010 House Tour. This year’s tour of Germania and Eastlake Terrace was a big success, with over 100 participants joining in the festivities.As usual, there will be annual reports on the Society’s financials and operations. We’ve done a lot this year and these should be quite interesting.
Volunteers who have made exceptional contributions to the Society will be honored, and we’re planning to have a presentation about our community’s history, similar to the one Glenna Eaves made at the 2009 meeting.
with the July 2009 issue of the Society's newsletter, The Historian, we are now printing with soy inks on recycled paper.
