ACTIVITIES & EVENTS
Society activities are open to BBVHS members, and consist of regular monthly meetings, many interesting field trips, and the operation of the museum. A monthly newsletter, "TALL PINES", is mailed to members providing current Society news and listing planned events. The Society publishes books pertaining to Big Bear Valley which are available at the museum gift shop and local book stores, or may be ordered by mail from the Society. General Meetings are normally scheduled on the second Wednesday of each month. Beginning in October, the General Meetings will be held on the first Tuesday of the month. Board Meetings are held the first Thursday of each month unless otherwise announced. *Click here for membership information* Winter 2009-2010 Calendar The Big Bear Historical Museum is closed for the winter season and will reopen in May of 2010. Friday, December 25: The Historical Society wishes everyone a Very Merry Christmas. Friday, January 1: May all have a Happy and Healthy New Year. Tuesday, January 5: The General Meeting is to be held at the Discovery Center on North Shore Drive at 7:00 P.M. Mark Durban, a long time resident and local historian, will be the speaker. His subject will be on the history of the Big Bear City Fire Department. All are welcome and there is no admission fee. There is a brief summary from an article written by Doug Walton that will appear in the January "Tall Pines Newsletter", that all members receive. Last month the society had the opportunity to add another historic building to our already growing museum. It was the 1920's original Caddy Shack from the Peter Pan Resort Golf Course. Doug tells of the exciting trials and tribulations that the fellows had while moving the building, even about a small earthquake that occurred while he was straddling the rooftop. Those of you who receive the newsletter, be sure to read this article. Hope all the visitors enjoy and appreciate what our hard working members do to improve our museum.
