LUCERNE, Calif. – Lake County Genealogical Society celebrates its 35th anniversary Saturday, Sept. 22.

The event takes place at the Lenore Clark Genealogy Library, inside the Lake County Visitor Information Center, 6110 E. Highway 20 in Lucerne, from 1 p.m. to 4 p.m.

The Lake County Genealogical Society was formed in 1977 to promote the preservation of records and to help individuals find their family roots.

Over the years society members have gathered a large collection of historical and genealogical information on Lake County including information about schools, resorts and cemeteries.

The afternoon of Sept. 22 can be spent sharing information with fellow researchers, seeing what is new at the genealogy library and viewing displays of some Lake County ancestors.

Light refreshments will be provided.
