The SacArea History Network, formed in 1993 as a committee of the Sacramento County Historical Society, is a consortium of historical, ethnic, cultural and related organizations from Sacramento and adjoining areas. It was created as a forum for local organizations with interest in local history to meet and to share and exchange thoughts and ideas. Membership consists of over 30 organizations, and meetings are quarterly. Dues of $25 are assessed every 1-2 years, as needed to support expenses such as mailings.
