Fourth Annual Great Santa Rosa History Hunt

On September 9, 2017 the HSSR held the Fourth Annual Great Santa Rosa History Hunt – the most attended yet. Held on McDonald Avenue, participants – members and guests – were provided a set of clues regarding the residences on the Avenue.

mcdonal-aveSleuthing ensued resulting in a 3-way tie for first and second places, with 13 and 12 correct answers. Pedestrian safety was greatly aided by community volunteers with the Santa Rosa Police Department. A fun and safe history hunt brought out residents of the Avenue to talk and discuss the neighborhood, event, and exhibited Santa Rosa’s strong community celebrating its history.
