Each year at this time the Park Cities Historic and Preservation Society (PCHPS) invites the community to join the organization and take advantage of the many benefits of membership through its fundraisers and other events which celebrate historic preservation and generate awareness of the role history and preservation play in enhancing the quality of life for everyone who lives and works in the Park Cities communities.
Co-Presidents Polly McKeithen and Jana Paul

Co-Presidents Polly McKeithen and Jana Paul agree: “At a time when we are all staying closer to home, there is a heightened appreciation for the things that make our community special. We invite new and renewing members to join us as we work together to build awareness about the importance of protecting and promoting the visual history along with architectural and cultural legacies of the Park Cities. Our community’s support is crucial to the success of these efforts."

Some of the favorite fundraising events sponsored by PCHPS are the Historic Home Tour, Distinguished Speakers Luncheon and the Classic & Antique Car Show, which in Spring 2021, celebrates the community and its architectural and automotive treasures. Join now and become a part of this wonderful group.
