The Idlewild Lot Owners Association has helped shape community life for more than a century through civic improvement, fellowship, cultural programs and youth activities. After a donation of land and cash from the widow Margaret Riffe in 1954, the organization developed youth programming here, and the Robert H. Riffe Youth Center opened around 1962. It remains a symbol of investment in Idlewild’s next generation.
