some of the first airplanes on the west coast.
Early Motorsports
The rich history of local motor sports from
Exposition Park in SLO where Eddie Meyer and
Ralph DePalma raced in the 1920s to the numerous
hot rodders who settled in the area and were
responsible for many now common products.

through care and restoration.
About the Foundation
The Central Coast History Foundation has been
established as a non-profit entity to launch
this inaugural publishing project. This
framework will provide the structure for similar
efforts on Central Coast innovators in the
future. With the organization in place, ensuing
projects will be facilitated by reduced start-up
costs, a directory of area resources, production
guidelines and established distribution networks.
"The Achievers"
The Central Coast History Foundation’s first
project is a book that will explore these
pioneers and their achievements.
