In a Minute

ONLY A WEEK AWAY! Saturday, August 9, Restoration Workshop Trinity United Methodist Church, 676 N. Gibbs 9:00 am     Our biggest need to make the Workshop a success is donations for the Silent Auction. We count on the proceeds to help fund the event and give us proceeds to fund the Grant Program. So please put aside items that you no longer need, or want to donate, for this important effort by Pomona Heritage. You can drop off the items at Jim and Suzanna Deakyne's side porch at 305 E. Jefferson, or just bring them to the Workshop on Saturday morning. Call Suzanna at (909) 615-7426 for more info. Thanks everyone!    We have a fun day planned with some new workshops, plus some returning favorites, our popular Silent Auction, a delicious lunch, our popular lunchtime Restoration Panel, and the after-workshop tour of a wonderful English Tudor "in progress" home.     We could use some help passing out Workshop postcards in your neighborhood. If you have a little time, it's a great way to meet new neighbors and get the word out about the Workshop. Call Megan Gearhart for more details, (909) 753-9768.The Workshop is free and open to the entire community, so bring a friend and spread the word. See you there!     SAVE DECEMBER 7, FOR OUR "THIRTIETH ANNIVERSARY OLD HOUSE TOUR".      Plans are well underway for a celebration of 30 years of bringing visitors to our neighborhoods and town, showcasing what a great place Pomona is to work and live in. We are proud of our city, and the Annual Tour has highlighted our three Historic Districts, rejuvenated Downtown, restored landmark buildings, and our vibrant diverse community.  This year's Tour features 5 unique vintage homes decorated for Christmas, the magnificent Pilgrim Congregational Church Sanctuary, festive trolley service to the various sites, Holiday vendors, live music, holiday food and more! Keep a watch for future "In a Minute" updates and find out how you can help make this a holiday celebration! Call chairman Fred Van Allen for more details, (909) 261-9711.
