Arlene Bernholtz was installed as the president of the Calabasas Historical Society on June 23rd at the “Old Town Calabasas Bar-B-Q Dinner and Dance,” held at the Leonis Adobe in Calabasas. She took over the position from George French, who had been the Society’s president for the 2001-2005 term.

The Calabasas Historical Society is dedicated to enjoying, exploring, recording and preserving the unique and colorful history of Calabasas and its environs.

The list of society accomplishments under French’s presidency was lengthy, and included the presentation of scholarship awards and the contribution of historical photos to the Oviatt Library at CSU at Northridge.

Bernholtz said “George will be a tough act to follow.” We think she’s up to the task. Congratulations to both.
