The Paradise Historical Society was named “Business of the Year” by the Paradise Chamber of Commerce in 2013. We were surprised and ecstatic to receive such an honor. To accept such a tribute only spurs us forward to continue finding ways to help make our community an ever greater place to live. We hope to continue to ‘partner’ with other important groups such as the Chamber of Commerce, EDC, City

of Paradise, Paradise Volunteer Fire Department, area churches, and local businesses. Working together can accomplish much - not to mention all the fun it creates! We have lots of plans for the upcoming year, so stay tuned and get ready to join in. Who would have thought that history could be so enjoyable?
