Friends of Susanville history gathered together at the museum on Weatherlow street last Saturday evening for the Lassen Historical Society’s annual Christmas Party.
The society welcomed Mrs. West and students from Long Valley Charter School’s Susanville Resource Center who sang holiday favorites for the crowd.
The Historical Society is currently working to raise money to make repairs to Roop’s Fort, the first residence built in the Honey Lake Valley as a wave of pioneer settlers streamed into California during the 1850′s.
In September Susanville’s Sunrise Rotarians made a generous contribution to the preservation of the fort with a donation earmarked for structural improvements at the 160 year-old cabin.
