SAVHA Fall Lecture and Annual meeting on November 18

 

Only a few seats remain available for the "Pearl's Diary" event planned on Saturday, November 18 by the San Antonio Valley Historical Association.


         The event is part of the Fall Lecture and Annual Meeting being held in the social hall of St. Mark's Church in King City at the corner of Bassett Street and South Third Street.  It will begin at 1 p.m. with a luncheon followed by a talk at 2 p.m.  The public is invited.


           Featured speakers will be Marvin Daniels of Pismo Beach, Dan Daniels of King City and Redding, and Marlene Daniels Thomason of Parkfield.   The siblings have been working for nearly four years to transcribe 45 years of entries in the diaries of their mother, Pearl (Rist) Daniels.   The writings are a fascinating glimpse into the life of a Southern Monterey County ranch wife including references to national and local events.


           Cost for the event is $15 for SAVHA members and $20 for non-members.  Payment in advance is required and reservations can be made before November 15 by calling 831-385-0323 or 805-472-2780 or emailing savha4@gmail.com and sending a check to SAVHA P.O.
