Pioneer Days Treasures Historic Photo/Video Display
Saturday, Oct. 14 and Sunday, Oct. 15

One of the more popular events each year is when Sierra Madre's oldtimers gather at the Senior Center to reminisce and review photos of old time Sierra Madre.  This year, many new (old) photos were added to the display, and video has been discovered that shows Sierra Madre in the late 1930s and Pioneer Days in the late 1940s.  In addition, much research was undertaken to honor the Sierra Madre's Rose Princess' throughout the years.
