The Lemon Grove Historical Society continues its “History Alive” lecture series. Author James D. Newland, La Mesa resident and a historian and manager with California State Parks, partnered with the Mt. Helix Park Foundation to create a photographic history of Mt. Helix and its neighbors, landmarks, and notable events.
Fun fact: After a European snail (Helix aspersa) was discovered living on the mountain, Rufus King Porter, the founder of what is now Spring Valley, named the peak Mt. Helix.
