Huntington Beach Events Calendar Daily ViewTHURSDAY, JUNE 18, 2009
June 18, 2009 Rally to Save Huntington Beach Main Street's Library / Triangle Park. Bring the kids with you to this rally. As part of a master plan for downtown Huntington Beach, the design and use of the greenbelt and library are being under scrutiny with redevelopment plans to create higher traffic use. Residents of homes surrounding the park, and visitors to the library are seeking support in preserving an historic element of the downtown, rather than reconstruction of one of the 100-year-old library system's unique buildings and grounds. Time: 7 p.m. Cost: Free. Location: 6th & Main St., Huntington Beach, CA. Call: (714) 374-9928. hb.diva @yahoo.com
June 18, 2009 Japanese Relocation Camps During World War II. The last baby born at Manzanar, a California isolation camp that placed Japanese Americans in internment facilities and forced them into menial tasks and labor such as farming during WWII, has been invited to share in the discussion about these temporary prisons. A discussion led by Ken Inoye, member of the Orange County Human Relations Commission, will explore the Japanese experience and include a film about the only non-Japanese camp member, John Lazo. Presented by the City of Huntington Beach under the auspices of the Centennial Committee and Human Relations Task Force, the event and a series of nine lectures are designed to examine diversity through a variety of "eyes". The stories should stimulate further discussion. Time: 7 p.m. Cost: Free admission. Location: Huntington Beach Art Center, 538 Main St., Huntington Beach, CA.
