Holiday Members’ Outing: Lunch & Irvington Historical Society Visit

December 4, 2021 @ 11:30 AM - 2:00 PM

Join us on Saturday, December 4 for lunch and a visit to the Irvington Historical Society, housed in the lovely Bona Thompson Memorial building. The Memorial was built in 1902 as the Butler University Library and was funded by Bona’s parents in memory of their daughter who had died not long after graduating from Butler University, which at that time was located in Irvington.

Attendees will meet for lunch as a group at 11:30 a.m. at Jockamo Upper Crust Pizza, 5646 E. Washington Street, before visiting the Irvington Historical Society. Those not wishing to lunch beforehand are welcome to go directly to the Bona Memorial (5350 E. University Avenue), which opens at 1 p.m. There will be a Christmas display in addition to the Irvington Historical Society’s usual wide array of exhibits. There are stairs into the building, but an elevator is available from the east entrance. Please bring a face mask in case of public health restrictions in place at the time of our visit.

Advance registration is requested so that we can give a head count to the restaurant when reserving space for our group. RSVP by November 30 to [email protected]. Carpooling is recommended to simplify parking; please let us know when you RSVP whether you would like to carpool or will be driving separately.

There is no charge for this event other than whatever you spend for lunch.
