"May 29, 1935: On this day in San Diego History, the California Pacific International Exposition opened in Balboa park... This 1935 exposition was especially important because it was held in the middle of the great economic depression of the 1930s, and it offered hope to San Diegans and to the rest of America that the country would soon be able to overcome its problems."
