Scope and Content
This collection contains the records of the Avondale Estates Garden Club. The collection chiefly consists of the Club's scrapbooks which highlight its projects, awards, and anniversaries.

Willis, founder and builder of Avondale Estates, and to establish a bird sanctuary. Also included are yearbooks and history of the Club. These materials document the Club's civic and social activities as well as special projects.
