The fonds consists of two articles about the history of the Richmond Hill Golf Club by Isabel Campbell and Cay Humphrey, a 1988 Golf Events Calendar, and 17 scrapbooks created by the Ladies of the Richmond Hill Golf and Country Club from 1961 to 1967, and the Ladies of the Grande Prairie Golf and Country Club from 1967 to 2004. The scrapbooks contain news clippings about the ladies draws and tournaments as well as other activities, the expansion of the golf course, junior and men’s golfing, general news about activities at the Golf and Country Clubs, and regular columns which appeared in the Grande Prairie Herald-Tribune. There are also a few newsletters from the Grande Prairie Golf and Country Club and, beginning in 1976, a few photographs. In the 1980s, minutes of club meetings are being added to the scrapbooks as well as tournament programs and mementos from trips made by the Ladies Club. The records are consistent through the 1990s, but sporadic from 1999 to 2005.
The fonds consists of issues of the Grande Prairie Herald-Tribune from January 5, 1939 to 1964, when the paper became a daily. From 1964 to 2005, there are only the front pages of each issue.
In 1955-1956, the Herald-Tribune published a weekend magazine. These are filed separately with the smaller Grande Prairie papers.
The fonds consists of records relating to the Hodgson family.

Lake/One Island Lake and Hodgson family tree. The records have been arranged by the Archivists by content and chronology into the various series and files.
