This year we will also have a special tour of the Bureau of Reclamation Building given by Dan Everhart from the Idaho State Historic Preservation Office. This historic building was built in the fall of 1911 as the first permanent building to serve as the administrative headquarters for the Boise Irrigation Project of the United States Reclamation Service. The organization managed multiple federally-sponsored reclamation and irrigation projects including the Deer Flat Embankments, Deadwood Dam, and Minidoka Dam. In addition to being historically significant, this Craftsman-style building is architecturally significant and has remained largely unaltered since 1912.
Please RSVP by February 2nd so we can have a headcount for food and drink. You can RSVP by clicking the button below or by calling Kathleen at 208-424-5111.

Support education projects as we look to 2020
We have a number of educational programs that help us make a difference and this year we kicked off our year-end giving with a campaign to support our Idaho Time Machine and Idaho Architecture Project, these programs serve to educate Idahoans of all ages about the value of architectural history and the history of buildings and neighborhoods.
