Records document the structure, activities, interests, events, and business transactions of the Woman's Club of San Antonio. The records of the Board of Directors, the General Assembly, and the Officers document the governance and business of the Club. In addition, matters such as resignations, and internal club business are revealed in the Correspondence. Material on the civic and social activities and interests of Club members can be found in the Department records, Committee records, Roundtable records, and Events records. The Events records in particular reveal the Club's participation in San Antonio's annual Fiesta. The best overall view of the Club and its structure is available in the annual Club Yearbooks, 1900-1987, located in Printed Materials. These publications contain member lists, calendars of events and meetings, officer lists, bylaws, rules, and a message from the Club president. Of note are applications for membership, 1937-1982, which record demographic information, including schooling, place of birth, occupation, and club affiliations. These documents are located in the Membership sub-series within the series Committees. The largest series documents the Roundtables, luncheon groups organized to encourage study and friendship. These groups are the core of the Club's civic and social activities, and record their activities both in written documents as well as scrapbooks.
