HEMET - Join the Hemet Heritage Foundation and Hemet Museum on Monday, Nov. 18 for a presentation on the development of Lake Hemet Dam. Not many people realize that up in the San Jacinto Mountains sits a historical feature that was not only an amazing accomplishment in its time, but also a keystone in the development of the City of Hemet.
Bob Norman, a longtime resident of the San Jacinto Valley, will lay out what was accomplished in the late 1800s to help bring about a new town in one corner of the arid lands of the southern San Jacinto Valley.
This presentation takes place at Memorial Funeral Services, located at 1111 S. State Street in Hemet, and open to the public. Complimentary refreshments will be served. Doors open at 6 p.m. with the presentation starting at 6:30 p.m.
