I attended a lovely
luncheon meeting of the Largo Women's Club on Tuesday October 7th and
spoke to the 30 members present about the shared history of the group
with Largo Public Library. The group started out as the Ladies'
Improvement Society in 1906 and reformed as the Largo Women's Club in
1914. This organization has a long history of philanthropic endeavors
throughout the city and created the library in 1916 with the help of
local citizens. As the library gears up to start the centennial
celebrations in 1915 we are reaching out to other local organizations
and residents for pictures, memorabilia and documents to enhance our
Local History Collection. Please contact the library if you wish to
donate any items or if you would like a staff member to speak to your
group.
