Dothan Landmarks Foundation, Inc., was founded in 1976. One of its missions was to act as an historical society for the Dothan, Ala., area. To that end, board members, the Executive Director, and interns conducted taped interviews with local citizens living in area nursing homes. Occasionally, staff would record structured conversations between long-time local residents and attendees at summer day camps held at Landmark Park, Dothan.
