The Acacia Club Papers
Abstract
This collection was donated to the Stewart Library Special Collections Department, Weber State College by the Acacia Club through the efforts and funding of Dorothy D. H. Stevenson. The papers have been arranged chronologically by category. The minute books, membership rosters, financial records and personal correspondence covering the years 1911 to 1974 are found in two document cases. The current-event topics and discussions of service and charitable works provide valuable insight into the concerns of the day, and also into perception of world affairs. Of particular interest are the letters, thank you cards and notes written by the individual members to the group. Within this correspondence the spirit of lasting friendship is expressed poignantly after decades of association. The collection includes newspaper clippings and obituary notices, which highlight the rich diversity of backgrounds and accomplishments of the Acacia Club members.
