Irvine Homecoming 50 Celebration
Vintage Orange Wednesday, April 27th 2016
This week, Irvine pioneer resident and long-time community organizer Sharon Toji shares her memories of University Park. In the summer of 1966, she and her family were among the first 250 families to move into the first Village in what would later become the city of Irvine.
Sharon is also part of the Irvine 50 Year Homecoming event happening this July; a gathering of residents from all of Irvine's early villages.
For more information on how to get involved, check out the Irvine 50 Homecoming Facebook page
