"We use the year 1868 as the year of Boulder Creek's founding," said Lynda Phillips, the executive director of San Lorenzo Valley Historical Museum. While people were here before that and the railroad came after, 1868 is when the first school was built. "And we decided what really makes a town a town is when people decide this is where to raise and educate their children," Phillips explained.
