Lakeside Historical Society
About Us:
In 1972, the Lakeside Historical Society was formed 90 years after the El Cajon Valley Land Company installed our boathouse in the only natural fresh water lake in San Diego County, thus marking the beginning of our town.
In those 90 years a lot of our history was not recorded, and so was lost. The Society was formed with the express purpose of recording our passage through the years so that never again would a 90 year period contain so many blanks.
Today, the Society is not only dedicated to recording our history but to the preservation of our old buildings in a Heritage Park, which we will strive to establish.
Many of us remember only as far back as our grandparents. The Society has pledged a better fate for Lakeside.
