Cuyahoga Falls, Ohio
History |
In the early days when when dealing with society and social
matters, Cuyahoga Falls was always fully abreast with the most intelligent and
refined of her Western Reserve contemporaries. These included a large number of
church and benevolent associations and the various civic and beneficial
organizations that have existed from time to time. Ever appreciative of good
music, the Falls has produced several vocalists and pianists of more than local
reputation.
Anti-slavery, missionary, temperance and other reformatory movements
have had in their day and generation received due attention from the people of
the Falls. Some of the other groups of people or 'clubs' are listed below:
