Our society is dedicated to the research, documentation, preservation, enjoyment, and public enrichment of the history and heritage of Gladstone, Oregon and the surrounding local area.
The society holds regular monthly meetings that include the business of the society and historically themed programs, presentations, and guest speakers. Throughout the year, the society also plans various projects and activities of particular historical interest. The society participates in the city's summer festival during which members promote Gladstone's history and answer local history questions. |
Since 1992, the society has been actively engaged in the publication of books and calendars that relate the history of Gladstone in words and photos.
All of the society's events are free, open to the general public, and announced regularly in the Gladstone City Newsletter and on our website Meetings page. |
