PROGRAM
Judith Dale
The History of Buellton
Ms. Dale spoke to the members about the rich history of Buellton and the surrounding Santa Ynez Valley. She grew up on her family's farm in that area. She spoke on a wide variety of subjects including the Gaviota Pass, Chumash Indians, Hollister Wharf and Las Cruces (Hwy 1), to name just a few. Her program was very interesting and gave everyone a different perspective of the area.
