What's going on?
-- Well, we're happy to say that the Dr. Howe-Waffle
House is enjoying a
well-deserved renovation of sorts with a new premium-quality roof,
a beautiful new paint job, and
some repair work on some of the steps. The project
began in mid-April and is expected to
be completed in July. We'll keep you informed on the status.
Stay tuned for information about our special Summer
Renovation Celebration -- a special get
-together to celebrate the work on the House and to thank all those
who donated and made this
work happen!
A big thanks to the City of Santa Ana, who helped us
obtain a federal Community Block Grant
and who is overseeing the project, our production project leader
Steve Cate, Behr Paints for
donating all the paint and primer for this job, ABC Roofing and
CertainTeed who have drastically
reduced the price of their superior roofing materials, and to the
various Society board members
who have donated over the last year to help with this project.
(And thanks to Chris Jepsen for

OC History Blogsite.)

Santa Ana Memorabilia Room
-- The Society has created the beginning of a "Santa
Ana Room"
where we will display items from Santa Ana's past.
We have a variety of cabinets and now we're
looking to fill them with anything from our past that
has Santa Ana on it (advertising items, old
photos, products made in SA (with the city name on
it), etc. If you would like to donate any items
that we could use, please contact us at
sahps@sahps.org
or leave a message at 714 547-9645.
If you have some Santa Ana item just collecting dust,
please consider donating it. We'll add a
note saying who donated it.
We'll let you know how the room looks as time goes on.
