JANUARY NEWS & EVENTS
Happy New Year!
The New Year is a time of beginnings, a time of renewal and a time when we all resolve what we want to do to improve our lives, our career, our relationships, our community, our circumstances and our health. It is also a time of reflection, when we look back to see what we have accomplished and what we need to do in the future to reach our goals.
Established in 1976, 2016 marks the 40th year of Claremont Heritage's service to the Claremont community!40 years dedicated to fulfilling the mission to advance, preserve and celebrate the historic, architectural, natural and cultural resources of the community.
In 2016 Claremont Heritage joins the National Trust for Historic Preservation in celebrating their initiative "This Place Matters" with our 2016 Theme CLAREMONT MATTERS!
Historic Structures saved from demolition and given new life through adaptive reuse
This intended double-meaning theme reminds us that Claremont does matter and that there continues to be matters that come before us that must be addressed in order to promote and maintain those things that give our community a very special Sense of Place!
Without the support of our members of our many initiatives, we would not have the resources to advance, preserve and celebrate the historic, architectural, natural and cultural resources of this unique community.
On behalf of the Board of Directors, thank you for your continued support.
Best regards,
John Neiuber
President
Claremont Heritage is an inclusive community organization dedicated to preserving and celebrating our cultural, architectural and natural heritage - see how you can become involved
