Professional Photographers document 2023 Arizona Historymakers Celebration

 Capturing precious moments at the Arizona Historymakers™ Celebration Oct. 14 were two very capable photographers: Joshua Goode and Colleen Katz. The Historical League is very grateful for their wonderful works.

 "Grateful Gathering" Friday, April 22 celebrated the Historical League's 40th Anniversary and the refreshed, enhanced Historymakers Hall at Arizona Heritage Center at Papago Park.

Postponed by Covid-19, the event finally happened. Susan Dale stayed on as President for an unprecedented two years working towards the goals.

Special Thanks to Linda Corderman and her committee who volunteered countless hours towards the new enhanced Historymakers Hall.

Thanks to all those involved in the evenings events.

Historical League December Zoom meeting is fun!

December's Historical League meeting has always been a festive one with delicious foods, good friends, holiday outfits, libations and a short meeting. Zoom meetings are not quite the same although President Susan Dale motivated us to bring on the Christmas Cheer for 2020.

Claire Nullmeyer organized an auction and raffle as well so we had much to be grateful for.

Can you find Norma Hinton wearing a Christmas sweater? or Linda Fritsch donning a moving, singing, jingling Santa hat?

Zoom meetings are productive. Linda Corderman gave an update at the December Historical League meeting on the Historymakers Hall renovation. She is working with Historymaker and artist Ed Mell who has donated images for the Hall.

Marilyn Murphy encouraged us to be judges for the virtual 2021 National History Day regional (Feb.) and state (March) events. For more information www.ArizonaHistoricalSociety.org or contact nhdaz@azhs.gov
