A History of Yellow Springs Churches, Part I
2:00 p.m. until 4:00 p.m. in the Senior Center Great Room

  Usually when one thinks of the history of Yellow Springs, Antioch College is probably the first thing that comes to mind. Various Yellow Springs churches began as early and are as closely entwined in the history of Yellow Springs, but rarely get attention from an historical perspective.

The Yellow Springs Historical Society is inviting churches and other religious institutions to share their histories in Historical Society programs. Because there are so many organizations to consider, we are starting with with those with earlier dates of establishment in Yellow Springs.

For the first of this series, we will feature: Central Chapel AME Church, Pleasant Grove Missionary Church, Yellow Springs United Methodist Church, First Presbyterian Church and St. Paul's Roman Catholic Church.

At this meeting you will also be able to view the limited edition 1930's Glen Map Print...a fund-raiser for preserving the Antioch Bookplate archives. This print was taken from the original printing plate and would make an excellent holiday gift.

Also, this program offers an excellent opportunity to pay for a 2010 Historical Society membership. Help us save postage. Families $15.00, individuals $10.00, seniors $5.00.

The gathering is free and open to the public. Light refreshments will be served.
