Redmond Historical Society Monthly Meeting

History is happening in the Redmond area and we welcome you to our meeting.  The Redmond Historical Society will meet on Saturday, January 14, 2012, 10:30 a.m. to noon at The Old Redmond Schoolhouse Community Center, 16600 NE 80 Street, Redmond, WA.  Lorraine McConaghy is the public historian with the Museum of History and Industry in Seattle.  She will be discussing her new book, “New Land, North of the Columbia: Historic Documents that Tell the Story of Washington State from Territory to Today.”  Lorraine’s presentation is sponsored by Humanities Washington, which honors and shares stories, ideas, and perspectives from across our state that connect Washingtonians from all backgrounds and communities, allowing us to understand our past and present as we work to shape our future. 

Remember the quilt raffle in honor of Redmond’s Centennial celebration in 2012.  Tickets sell for $2 each.  To receive the monthly newsletter, contact the Society office at 425-885-2919, or email your request to info@redmondhistoricalsociety.org.   Books, note cards, free historic walking tour brochures, and the book, “Redmond Reflections,” are available in our office, which is open Monday through Friday from 9:30 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. and by appointment.  Visit our website: redmondhistoricalsociety.org.
