Statement of Significance This building is historically significant relative to National Register Criterion A for its association with Louisville's social and cultural development during the period 1926-1952. Used as a clubhouse by the Louisville Rod and Gun Club, and later as a troop room by Boy Scout Troop 69, the property has had a long and continuous history as a social meeting place. The building is also notable for its close proximity to Miners Field baseball park, and to Louisville's bandstand and park facilities, during the period of significance. The structure is also architecturally significant under National Register Criterion C for its modest expression of the Mission Revival style of architecture. Although this building represents a very unpretentious example of the style, it is so far the only historic Mission Revival style building recorded in Louisville, and one of only thirteen examples of the style known to exist in Boulder County. Based on the above discussion, therefore, the Louisville Rod and Gun Club building may be considered individually eligible for inclusion in the National Register of Historic Places under Criteria A and C. 43.
