Attention Friends of RHS!
We've had an interesting request come through the office recently, and we're excited to share it with you!
A neighborhood gentleman is intereseted creating a Sherlock Holmes club, and we'd love to see how many of our friends would be interested in joining.
Do you know a Sherlock fan? A mother or father, niece or nephew, highschool student, grandmother or grandfather, neighbor or teacher who loves solving mysteries? Anyone at all who is a fan of Sir. Arthur Conan Doyle's beloved detective is welcome.
Please contact RHS via this post or email(ridgehistory@hotmail.com) so we could start form Beverly/Morgan Park's own Sherlockian society!
TODAY at RHS!
