Admission is free. There will be raffle items and refreshments, and all the proceeds will go to the Building and Expansion fund for the Big Bear Museum. The meeting will be held at the Discovery Center on Thursday, February 14, at 7pm. Weather permitting, the Historical Society will take a field trip the following day to better illustrate the importance of the Forest Service Stewardship Program.
