| About us | To celebrate Historic Preservation Week of May 1997, Pat Ferraro Klos led more than 50 participants on a walking tour of the Humboldt and Lander Street neighborhoods. Twenty-five of these walkers, appetites whetted by this brief taste of history, gathered afterwards at My Favorite Muffin to discuss creating an organization dedicated to preserving Reno’s past. The result of this meeting of minds was the creation of the Historic Reno Preservation Society. The first slate of officers were: President Pat Klos, Vice President Cindy Ainsworth, Secretary Sandy Saunders, and Treasurer Holly Young. HRPS filed its Articles of Incorporation in February 1998. Bylaws were approved in September 1998 and in December 1999 it was granted tax-exempt status as a 501(c)3 organization. |
