Hundreds of Arcadians attended the reception held at historic Anoakia where they toured the house and grounds and picked up their copies of the new history book ARCADIA: WHERE RANCH AND CITY MEET.
A pictorial history entitled "Arcadia: Where Ranch and City Meet" is being published by the Friends of the Arcadia Public Library. The book is written and compiled by Pat McAdam of the Arcadia Public Library and Sandy Snider of the Los Angeles State and County Arboretum.
Less than a month before the Arcadia Historical Society was going to open, the Arcadia City Council has voted to move its building to a new site, at the southwest corner of the Arcadia Public Library.
Responding to a proposal by L. A. County, the Arcadia City Council has agreed to discuss receiving title to the Rose Garden area of the Arcadia County Park for the city's Arcadia Historical Museum at the corner of Huntington Dr. and Holly Avenue.
