The Highland Park Ebell Club

By
Industry Observer

In 1903 an influential group of women formed the Highland Park Ebell Club, and when the elite women's organization opened a clubhouse ten years later, more than 20,000 people attended the colorful ceremonies.

One of the first causes championed by the local women was the preservation of the land around the Arroyo Seco as a park, and it remains a park today.

bring it all, a 5th place to post, I know it is not a large group but it is diverse and bit of an overview of 'what is out there' .  I have you on my dash too so I will get around to see what you are interested in but the group is easier for me to sneak in and read.  be good  cw
