Regular Meeting March 18, 2010. Our guest was Bruce Barton, owner of the Water Wheel Park in Manton. He donated a case of the book he has written, FABULOUS MEMORIES of a Truly Adventurous Life. We are selling them for only $10.00 each, including tax. This book is a collection of fascinating, often funny stories that Barton has accumulated over a very long and colorful career, and should sell very quickly. We are planning to clean up the old Bates Cemetery on Rancho Road on May15th, and we plan to attend the third annual Ono Historical Society & Museum luncheon on April 24th. In addition to Bruce's book, we still have our three books, and now are offering lovely sets of historical greeting cards for $10.00 for a box of twelve. See our "Books" page for ordering information.
Meeting April 15, 2010. Plans for the Bates Cemetery were finalized. Allen and Dahl have generously donated a large stone marker that lists the names of those who were buried there, as individual markers have long been lost. We will have a picnic lunch there the same day we do the cleanup, and will measure for a chain link fence to be installed later. Twelve of us plan to attend the Ono Historical luncheon on April 24th. We are still selling our historical note cards for $10.00 for a box of twelve. April 23 at 7 p.m. the Millville Grange will have a Community Reports program, and Rod Miranda will make a presentation on our Bates Cemetery project.
Next Meeting May20 at the Millville Historical Museum. Join us!
