For Clarksville Day 2019, we'd like to thank:
- The many who donated up to $250 each.
- The owners of the property that allow us to bring to you the annual event.
- Doug Veerkamp, who prior to the event, prepared the terrain to accommodate parking and exhibitors.
- The EDH Fire Department for "on the spot" first aid and support.
- The Stars (Sherriffs Team of Active Retirees) who helped with the parking.
- The many volunteers and exhibitors.
Next one is Saturday May 3, 2025
We can’t do Clarksville Day without more volunteers actively engaged. Please reach out. We are in need of new board members too as we are a skeleton board of four. You can help us achieve more by getting involved!
CRHS is a 501(c)(3) charitable organization, so donations are considered to be tax-deductible. Remember us in your estate plans as well. We certainly would put any donations to good use preserving local history.

New Bass Lake History BookClarksville Region Historical Society has just published “Bass Lake: A Gold Rush Artifact,” a new local history book by John Thomson, a former CRHS Director and a Founding Member. The book tells the story of the development of the mining ditches of southern El Dorado County, the story of the ditch companies that built those ditch systems, and how and when Bass Lake, originally known as American Reservoir, came to be a living artifact of the Gold Rush of 1849.
