Beethoven Club Searcy AR what happened

Searcy Beethoven Club.  

Shay Wilsong Sheila Person Beethoven Club Searcy AR

A friend of mine loaned me some interesting folders that she had found at an estate sale.  The folders were all about Searcy Beethoven Club history.  The club operated in Searcy AR and articles date back to at the least the 1950's and possibly earlier.  Lots of pictures showed that it met in member homes or churches or various places.  Assuming you know the husband's name, you may recognize some ladies because if I remember "way back then" we ladies had no identity except for the husband's name.  Seems as if I wrote a blog about that one time. (Click to see the interesting photo)

The club also put on shows and did interesting brochures to pass out at the meetings.  The first picture above shows very young participants in a program and the second picture shows some members with the President and other members meeting at the home of Mrs. Hubert Smith, Jr.  

My friend, Debbie Higgs, will be keeper of these fascinating folders so if you are interested in seeing them she can be found at Searcy Art Gallery.  She loves history and we need a Searcy Sleuth to tell us what happened to the Searcy Beethoven Club!

Paula was such an active person.  She definitely died too early.  But her legacy lives on!!
