The Logan County Historical Society is composed of people who are interested in preserving and perpetuating the History of Logan County.
|

Founded in 1900 the Logan County
Historical Society is responsible for
the preservation and restoration of
historic buildings and places in Logan
County, Oklahoma with particular
emphasis on Guthrie OK. Guthrie is a
National Historic Landmark and one of
The National Historic Trust's "Dozen
Distinctive Destinations" (Awarded to
Guthrie in 2004).
The architectural significance of the
Guthrie Historic District was the
inspiration for the LCHS annual
presentation of The Foucart Award for
excellence in restoration and
preservation. This prestigious honor
is presented to building owners each
year at the Society's Annual Banquet
and has become a benchmark for
excellence and a coveted prize for it's
recipients.
The Foucart Award, named after noted
architect Joseph Foucart, is also given
to individuals whose contributions to
preservation and restoration have
proven to be worthy of recognition.
