History Corner


Jim Sample, lifetime resident of Overland. Jim Sample told us the first story for the OPNA History Corner where his Grandparents moved to this area back in 1898 and ran a grocery store and gas station on Evans and Santa Fe.  

The nickle and the dime story.

Eloise May talks about hosting with Jack Unruh, 25 years of garden parties in the neighborhood.
