Vice Mayor Donna Colson, Mayor Brownrigg, Former Mayor Cathy Baylock, Syed Murtuza (Burlingame Public Works Director), and Board members of the Burlingame Historical Society welcomed an enthusiastic group of more than 3 dozen visitors from all over the Nation, interested in learning about the History of Burlingame, and our long history of Public-Private partnerships. They also experienced the wonder of the El Camino Tree Rows, the beautiful masonic temple, the brand new "Greetings" mural, and several historic buildings spread all over our downtown. Here are some images of the day.

On Thursday, October 25th at 7pm, at Kohl Mansion, we will show the documentary film "The Oaks of Burlingame--The Story of the C. Frederick Kohl Mansion" by Bridget Bell. The film is entertaining and enlightening. We hope to see you there! Free and Open to the public.
