Artifact Overview

In 1901, the Covode House was built as a small boys' club serving the recreational and social needs of local youth. Established by Howard Heinz (son of H.J. Heinz), the club allowed girls to participate two years later and soon outgrew its facility. The Sarah Heinz House (named after Howard's mother) was built around 1913 as its replacement. This booklet describes activities offered here.
