Join Preservation Dearborn on February 3, at 7 p.m. at the McFadden-Ross House to hear Ian Tomashik give an overview of the Dearborn Country Club's journey to historic preservation.Over the past two years, Ian, a Dearborn Historical Museum volunteer, has dedicated his spare time toward nominating the famous Dearborn Country Club to the National Register of Historic Places (NRHP).
The Club opened in 1925 as a personal entertainment venue for Henry and Clara Ford, who also oversaw its design and construction by architect Albert Kahn and landscape architect Donald Ross. This site, less than a mile from Fair Lane and Greenfield Village, has been a center for sport and culture in Dearborn for 100 years.
Along with covering the history of the Club, Ian will give an outline of the NRHP nomination process. This includes outlining sections of the NRHP registration form, the dialogue involved in proofreading/editing these sections with the State Historic Preservation Office (SHPO), SHPO map requirements, and more.
Join us at the McFadden-Ross House, 915 S. Brady, or watch the meeting on the Preservation Dearborn Facebook page.
