Ground-Breaking Ceremony

Ground-Breaking Ceremony
In 1929, Slovak women and their priest celebrated the future new headquarters of the First Catholic Slovak Ladies Association (FCSLA) in this ground-breaking ceremony. The cornerstone of the building now known as the Lee-Scottsdale Building was laid and blessed by a priest in 1929, and construction of the building was completed in 1930. The building served as headquarters for this ethnic fraternal benefits society from 1930 to 1968.
