<head>Historical Information
</head>
<p>Organized on 8 July 1946, the Round Hill Woman's Club consisted of twelve charter members dedicated to improving themselves and their community. They were especially interested in promoting the education, safety, and welfare of children in Round Hill. They joined the Virginia Federation of Women's Clubs in 1947. The club decided to leave the federation in 1973, however, feeling that the larger organization no longer provided the resources that the women of Round Hill wanted.
</p>
<p>The Round Hill Woman's Club held monthly meetings for the members to gather, listen to a host's program, and discuss what they could do to better their community. In the 1940s to the 1960s, the club supported many projects within the community such as a clothes closet for the Round Hill School, hosting an annual reception for Round Hill school teachers, and sending money to the Loudoun County Guidance Center and Round Hill Fire Department. They held fundraisers such as card parties, fashion shows, and donation suppers to collect money for their causes. Since they were especially concerned with music, art, and religious training for children, they provided funding for a music and art teacher for Round Hill Elementary School for several years.</p>
<p>During the 1970s, the Round Hill Woman's Club stopped hosting fundraisers and instead, increased membership fees to continue supporting community organizations. As the years progressed, their community involvement decreased, and the club became concerned largely with improvement of the members. To improve themselves personally, the host of the monthly meeting would prepare a program or invite a speaker to inform the women about everything from flower arranging to the juvenile delinquency. Additionally, the club hosted yearly luncheons and trips to local areas of interest.</p>
<p>As of 2014, the Round Hill Woman's Club was still in existence.</p>

<scopecontent encodinganalog="520$a">
<head>Scope and Content
</head>
<p>There is one box of folders, one oversized box containing the scrapbook, and one box of photographs. 
</p>
<p>The records consist of monthly meeting minutes written by the club secretary for the year, an attendance and membership list for each year, yearly summaries of the club's activities compiled by the secretary through the 1960s, and yearbooks issued annually to the members of the club containing a schedule of events and the addresses and phone numbers of each member. Additionally, the club kept records of their contributions to other organizations, and newspaper articles containing information about the members of the club. </p>
<p>The scrapbook, started in 1946 and ending around 2004, contains newspaper clippings of club activities, obituaries of club members, yearbooks, and letters received by the Round Hill Woman's Club.</p>
<p>The photographs document meetings, trips, and activities hosted by the Round Hill Woman's Club from 1988-2006.</p>
