ROHNERT PARK HISTORICAL SOCIETY MEMBERSHIP APPLICATION
Accomplishments - The Society became a nonprofit organization with a board of directors that includes Tim Danesi as president, Linda Holm as vice president, Karen Forni as secretary, and Marion Ackerman as treasurer. Since forming in 1999, we have found a place for storage of archives, collected over one hundred items and over one thousand, two hundred photographs and negatives relating to the Rohnert Park area. In addition, we have taken field trips to Sonoma State University and the Sonoma County Museum, published four newsletters (The Historian) in the past year, create an organization with thirty-five paid members, preserved oral histories of two long-time members of Rohnert Park, and created a space in the Archive Center for the Northwest Pacific Railroad Historical Society, where they store part of their collection and do research.
