Dear Friends of Claremont,
With summer almost upon us, if you're like me, you start to think about road trips and BBQ's, vintage cars and swimming pools. The theme of the
LA County Fair this year is
Route 66. If you want to get a preview of what is coming, please join us
Wednesday, June 6th at 7:00 pm at the Ginger Elliott Center at Garner House in Memorial Park, for a journey down memory lane !
More info below...
We look forward to seeing you soon!

The
2018 Bess Garner Preservation Award went to
The Webb Schools for their stewardship and preservation of the cultural resources on their historic campus.
The
2018 Cultural Heritage Award went to
Rancho Santa Ana Botanic Garden
in recognition of over 85 years as the largest botanic garden dedicated to California native plants and the educational programs, exhibitions, publications and events that add to our cultural resources in Claremont.
And last, but certainly not least, a very special shout-out to Girl Scout Troop 1094 who gave an outstanding presentation of the Founding Mothers of Claremont. Thank You for making this evening so special!
