 Series
Identifier: 4

Scope and Contents

From the Collection:

The first box contains annual programs which document the dates and locations of meetings, the reading list for the year, and the membership of the club. The richest sources of information are the secretaries’ books, which contain minutes of the club’s meetings. The minutes record information about the day’s program, motions made, committees appointed, planning for special events, and amendments to the club constitution and bylaws. There are also scrapbooks, which contain the annual programs, newspaper clippings, photographs, and ephemera. The scrapbook presented to the club in 1922 by Mrs. Howard S. Brode contains several histories of the club written by members.

The collection also contains meeting programs and resolutions issued by the Washington State Federation of Women’s Clubs (WSFWC) and the General Federation of Women's Clubs. The Walla Walla Woman's Reading Club was active in the WSFWC, and the two programs document WSFWC conventions held in Walla Walla. The General Federation of Women's Clubs presented the resolutions at its Seattle convention in 1932.
