1904: CONTEMPORARY CLUB'S NEW FALL SEASON BEGINS

Years ago, I was one of the tour guides on the Contemporary Club's annual "Four Views of Trenton" presentation. The ladies of the Contemporaty are really devoted to community affairs and civic improvement. Their headquarters on West State Street is a delightful example of Victorian Trenton.

IN AN OCTOBER 10, 2008 EMAIL, SALLY GILMAN WROTE:

Hi Tom: Going through your website I saw your comments regarding the Contemporary Club and it's Four Views of Trenton. On a visit from New Hampshire, our dear friend Connie treated my husband, George and me to a tour in April 2004. We went on Architectural Gems and it was great to visit Trenton Library, where I spent so much time while attending Trenton High, St. Michael's Church and the new Route 28 Tunnel Park. But the highlight was a trip to the top of the Battle Monument. George hates heights and because Connie did not want me to go up by myself, she gritted her teeth and went along. That was friendship. We had a wonderful lunch at The Contemporary Club and it was a day I will never forget.

Thanks for the memories,

Sally Logan Gilman
