Origins

The original planners of the club were Lucy Blackman, Alice Knox, and Lucy Meriwether in 1914. However, these women were not the official founders of the club. That honor goes to Mrs. Helen Morse who officially held the Women's Club first meeting in ‘Osceola Lodge’ on January 15, 1915. Mrs. Morse was the first president of the club with Mrs. Blackman as her vice President and Mrs. Hiram Power as secretary/treasurer.
