The
following is a brief summary of SCRSR,s beginng prepared by Edne C.
In
June of 1994, Janet K. publicized the new club’s first meeting at the Community
Center – no one showed up! The following month, Janet, along with Pearl T. and
Wille H. (both now deceased) got the club started and the first actual meeting
was held in July 1994. Bylaws were adopted in November.
The
rest is eventful history, with several other öld timers”( no disrespect
intended) all helping the fledgling club to share activities and events geared
to the needs of the new Continental Ranch community as well as each other. The
club’’s memorial plaques are testimony to those who
served the organization over the years, and they will always be remembered
within the SCRCR family.
