    LEAGUE NEWS The Newsletter of the League of Historical Societies of New Jer- Atlantic County to LEAGUE RECOGNIZED BY NEW JERSEY HISTORICAL COMMISSION Host League Meeting on At the New Jersey Historical Commission’s Annual Conference on November March 12th 20th, the League of Historical Societies of New Jersey was recognized for its role in promoting the history of New Jersey. The text of the commission’s citation *************************** appears below: Article and registration form “The League of Historical Societies is honored for its important role in promoting interest in the history of New Jersey. The League was founded in on page 11. 1967, following the New Jersey Tercentenary and the Civil War Centennial. These two events spurred general interest in the state's past. A number of local and statewide historical groups were established in this period, and in 1965, these groups met to discuss how the state's numerous local societies might come together for the regular exchange of information and ideas and for cooperative action in pursuit of their mutual interests. Since that period, the League has steadily built a statewide organization of organizations to fulfill its mission. “It now numbers some 300 member societies representing over 65,000 individual members. It is by far the largest grass roots organization devoted to New Jersey history, and it has played a role of crucial importance in public activities to protect state historical programs. “To fulfill its mission, the League relies solely on the volunteer efforts of its governing board and other members; it has no headquarters or other operating resources; its only source of funds is nominal membership dues which provide an annual budget of about $5,000.
