Your correspondent, Hilda
M. Payne, has returned from
her visit to Poway,
California, where she and
her husband were visiting
with their daughter and her
family, and will be pleased to
receive your reports, per
sonals, etc. as before.
Enjoy stay
Poway, California, where
we have been visiting for the
past two months, is both an
old and a new community.
This contrasting statement
can be explained by its in
teresting and diverse
history.
Poway is named after the
“Pauwai” Indians of the
digger tribes, of southern
California. Good looking,
good humored and of much
higher intelligence than
most California tribes, they
inhabited the coastal
foothills about 20 miles
northeast of San Diego.Their
main food was roots and
buckwheat plants.
In 1839, the 43 square miles
of Poway was offered to
Rosario Aguilar, who left the
area open to settlers. It
became a farming com
munity with small farms
producing hay, grain, fruit
and vegetables. This met
with small success due to
frequent periods of drought
as it was before the days of
irrigation.
In 1846, the first all
weather road from Yuma to
San Diego was opened and
with increasing trade
throughout the country,
Poway became a stop-off
point for the stagecoach by

Serving South Huron, North Middlesex & North Lar.ibton Since 1873
1858. Following that, gold
was discovered in the
mountains of the Julian area
and a stagecoach road was
established which passed
through Poway. But as
transportation changed and
major highways were built,
this road was re-routed,
hiding the valley from great
numbers of people.
Roads by-passing the
valley and ■ lack of water
resulted in a small
population for many years.
Modern Poway dates its
beginning from the mid
1950’s when the first
aqueduct to bring water
from the Colorado river was
constructed and a time of
rapid development began.
At that time, the population
was less than 500; this
passed the 5,000 mark by
1960 and between 1960-70 had
' an increase of 160 percent.
Today, it is one of the fastest
growing areas in San Diego
County.
Poway still retains its
agricultural and country
atmosphere. Horse ranches
are common and horse-back
riding a popular hobby,
especially at weekends.
Nearly everyone owns at
least one dog and these pets
are kept well under control.
Citrus trees are in gardens
everywhere, and geraniums
and poinsettias grow to six
feet or higher. Practically
every kind of flower can be
seen around Poway, roses
are prolific, spring flowers
were almost over by the time
we left and tropical flowers
were coming into bloom.
In 1971, Poway Dam was
built,creating beautiful Lake
Poway. Surrounded by hills
with hiking and riding trails,;
fishing and boating and also)
picnic facilities, this
provides an exceptionally
beautiful place to relax in the
sunshine.
As many local residents
know probably, not all the
days in Poway were sunny.
Three weeks of heavy rains
had saturated the coun
tryside just before our
arrival. This produced ten
inches of rain, the normal
annual rainfall and was most
welcome following three
years of drought. About a
week after our arrival it
started to rain again and
rained steadily for nine days
straight. By this time San
Diego County had been
proclaimed a disaster area
along with six other counties
in southern California due to
floods and mud slides.;
Poway luckily escaped anyi
major disaster, but when the.
rains came for a third time
at the end of February and
the beginning of March,
making a total of 25 inches of
rain, several areas of Poway
were flooded. Water over
flowed the dam and lake and
a few people had to be
rescued from homes, i
Several hillside homes were
undermined by mud-slides
though we did not hear of any
homes actually being lost in
Poway.
Mrs. Irene Blackwell
reported, re-members dues.
A card of thanks was
received from the Lavery
family. Mrs. Aldeen Volland
reported cards sent to
members.
An invitation was received
and accepted from Pride of
Huron Lodge, Exeter in
viting the members to attend
a banquet April 5 in honor of
the District Deputy
president Mrs. Bertha
MacGregor. Also received
. was an invitation to a dessert
euchre at Exeter Lodge,

The representative and
