Chatsworth Chapter Celebrates Its 14th Birthday

 

Kathleen Schwartzman  Chatsworth Chapter Secretary, Pamela Meyers District VIII Assistant Director, Mary Brown State Parliamentarian, Sassy Johnson Chatsworth Chapter Treasurer, and Sandra Orozco State Chaplain 




     On December 15, at the home of member Ann Vincent, Chatsworth Daughters celebrated our birthday. With the holiday festivities and pot luck luncheon, we had the joy of being with other State Officers and Chapter Regents. Debbie Jamison was unable to attend after a fall that broke her ankle. Our honored guests were Sandra Orozco State Chaplain, Mary Brown State Parliamentarian, Nancy Kilbourn District VIII Director, Francis Hall District Vlll Secretary, Sue Ellen Hollahan District VIII Historian, Barbara Randall District VIII Registrar, and Marilyn Look Conejo Valley Regent. 

     The Program on the Bells of El Camino Real was artfully presented by Ray Vincent husband of our hostess Ann. It was amazing to learn that the road was preserved by the diligence of women’s organizations. The idea of placing a marker along the highway and in front of each Mission did not come about until August 15, 1906 when a cast iron 85 pound bell and piping designed by Mrs. A.S.C. Forbes was placed into the ground at the Iglesia de Nuestra Senora Reina de Los Angeles, also known  as the Plaza Church near Union Depot in Los Angeles.
