Welcome to the Temecula Valley Historical Society!

The Temecula Valley Historical Society's July Program

At the Little Temecula History Museum on July 28 at 6:00 p.m.

Ken Graff will share "The Story of Riverside County's Hemet Ryan Airport and A History of Local Aviation." He will feature stories from his book "Mr. Ryan's Field," which will be available for purchase. Ken wrote the book to share and preserve as much of the history of the Ryan Field story in one place as possible.Ryan Field's rich history includes its years as a training base for World War II Army Cadets who learned to fly there, as well as hundreds who worked there during the war years. In the decades since the war, Ryan Field has played a part in the lives of thousands, including the amazing history of crop dusting and firefighting airplanes.
