Larkspur Kicks Off Its Centennial Year
There will be many ways to celebrate Larkspur's centennial this year, starting with the big birthday party that attracted more than 1,000 residents, past and present, at Hall Middle School gym on March 1 - the date in 1908 when Larkspur's incorporation as a city became official. The Larkspur Library will celebrate the Centennial on May 17 with events for all ages, and the Larkspur Food and Floor Festival on June 1 will feature historic photos and other mementoes. Formal history-related activities will culminate on September 13 when the Rose Bowl Dance that made Larkspur a popular destination for 50 years returns at the historic Escalle Winery. But it is also possible to revisit Larkspur's good old days on neighborhood walks, thanks to city and citizen efforts to identify and preserve many of the homes and commercial buildings where the infant city took its first steps.

Free guided walks of historic Larkspur are scheduled for two Saturdays in April. On April 12, Dick Cunningham will lead a walk through Larkspur's downtown, where sites and buildings span more than 150 years of activity. Then on April 26, Sue Cunningham will lead a walk in Baltimore Canyon, where Larkspur's recorded history started with a Gold Rush company that established a lumber mill there. Information on the tours, along with details on other centennial events, can be found in the Larkspur Recreation & Community Newsletter and elsewhere on this website. See Full Story.
