Zoom meetings during pandemic

Zoom meetings are becoming an effective way of working together during the pandemic. This one is Historical League Finance/Operations chaired by president elect Claire Nullmeyer. Great to see enthusiastic participation.

Featured in Scottsdale Progress

Scottsdale Progress featured Tastes & Treasures II book, Historical League and Arizona Heritage Center with a lovely article in today's issue, June 7, 2020. 
Thanks to Carolyn Hartman for a great job on publicity!

Corrections: The Historical League is celebrating its 40th Anniversary NOT the Heritage Center.
The title is Tastes & Treasures NOT Taste & Treasures.
Amazon sells it for $30 NOT $35.

Historical League June meeting via Zoom

Very involved, dedicated members attend the Historical League June meeting via Zoom, taking notes, getting involved. Over 30 attended our last meeting of the year but many will continue to volunteer over the summer working on events for fall.
