Love history? Dismayed by the recent news about demolitions of historic homes? Live in an older home and want info on how to maintain it?

A group of people are meeting to explore starting a group to preserve Columbia’s history. The meeting will be held at 2 p.m. on June 18, 2022 in the Frienda Room of Columbia Public Library.

This will be the group’s second meeting and will explore deciding in a mission and what the group wants to accomplish and coming up with a name. All input is welcome.

In setting its mission, the group will seek to support rather than compete with the Boone County History and Culture Center, Columbia’s Historic Preservation Commission and the local office of the State Historic Society of Missouri.
