Summer 2021 Snapshots
A Historical Reunion !
Summer Ice Cream Social
On August 1 , 2021 , the Mountain View Historical Association reunited for our first in-person event since winter 2020 . Due to the ongoing pandemic , we didn ’ t return to our normal gathering place , the historic Adobe Building , but instead met safely outdoors at Rengstorff Park . Members and guests browsed through binders of new items added to our archives over the past year-and-a-half , chit-chatted beneath the park ’ s beautiful oak trees , enjoyed It ’ s-It ice cream sandwiches , and learned about the park ’ s rich history as the former home of Mountain View ’ s Mexican-era founding family , the Castros . We enjoyed our afternoon in the park , and hope to return again for another event in the future !
