| February 7, 2010: Harrison Irving Scott, author of the The Ridge Route: the Road That United California, presented a slide/lecture at the Santa Barbara Presidio Chapel. Pearl Chase members and guests joined Mr. Scott on a journey back in time when the 95-year-old Ridge Route climbed over mountains and through canyons filled with grapevines between Bakersfield and Los Angeles. Thanks to the efforts of Mr. Scott and others, seventeen and a half miles of this road are now on the National Registry of Historic Places. The Society thanks Dr. Jarrell C. Jackman of the Santa Barbara Trust for Historic Preservation for the use of the Chapel. For more information on the Ridge Route go to http://www.ridgeroute.com/index.html |

December 13, 2009: The grand fireplace of the Friar’s Lounge at the Mission burned brightly and warmed the recently renovated hall for the annual Pearl Chase Society Holiday Party and Chili Fest. The room was bedecked with festive poinsettias, and Jake Jacobus, City Historian, and wife Mari entertained on keyboard and guitar. The Mission Renewal Center staff provided a bounteous array of appetizers, steaming pots of chili enticed diners, and a variety of libations warmed guests on the brisk day. Board member Kitty Peri organized a most delightful event. |
