Board of Directors and Committee Minutes, 1950-1953

The Women's Guild was organized in Cleveland on November 1, 1939, and represented a merger of the women's organizations of the Evangelical Synod of North American and the Reformed Church in the United States. Much of the material about the summer and quadrennial conventions was mounted in scrapbooks. Most of these have been discarded because of the acid nature of the pages, but the material has been salvaged and placed in acid-free folders. The last box contains such memorabilia as a scrapbook, guild emblems, badges, gavels and filmstrips. In that same box are photographs and clippings sent in 1995 by Louise Achenbach, a former staff member of the Guild.
