Next year marks the 50th anniversary of the deadly Beverly Hills Supper Club Fire. We are planning now for an exhibit to mark and remember this event. We would like to hear your stories and see any artifacts you might have to make this exhibit as complete as possible. We are hoping to speak with patrons of the Club, first responders, hospital personnel, etc. And we want to be sure to tell the stories of all the wonderful things that happened at Beverly Hills before the fire. Did you ever see a favorite entertainer, or go to a prom or a reunion there? Were you ever at a wedding there? We want to hear it all. Please call (859-635-6407) or e-mail (campbellhgs@gmail) or just stop by our office. Thank You!
