Good luck to the judges! Early voting starts today!

Happy Mother’s Day to all the moms out there!

While cleaning up the upstairs we found these Women’s RDC cards! But our resident historian was surprised to see these because the story goes that RDC’s charter was written before women got the right to vote and so included the words “any registered voter,” meaning the club automatically became co-ed when the 19th Amendment passed! We will have to do some more research to see if these cards were ever used or not!

The next time you are in the building check out all the work we’ve done upstairs! We plan to archive and catalog curiosities like these!
