Suncrest soon became a community of 150 homes and many civic improvements including a clubhouse, swimming pool, and playground. C.R. Job, local contractor, built the clubhouse for Suncrest.  Located at the corner of Suncrest Blvd. and Juanita Lane, the clubhouse was built in 1926 for the cabin site owners and their families and friends.  It was an imposing structure and originally had a wide wooden porch that completely surrounded the building. Kids loved to ride their bikes on the porch. Later this porch was enclosed and windows added as shown in the photo. A nice dance floor inside gave folks a chance to step to music. A massive fireplace stood on the east wall. Also located behind the clubhouse and heading down to what is now Crest School were a set of rings, bars, a shuffleboard court, and a regulation size tennis court. Records indicate, “ A caretaker was hired to look after the holdings, keep the roads passable, insurance, and many other things for both comfort and beauty.”  Dues were set at $5.00 per year. Meetings were held monthly at the clubhouse with all members invited.

In March of 1926, the Suncrest Club was incorporated and by-laws were adopted. As a result, the club took over the water system and clubhouse. It became necessary for a person to be a property owner in Suncrest to be eligible for membership in the club, and to be a club member in order to be entitled to water service. The clubhouse was in use until 1960 when Suncrest, Inc. was dissolved. The Suncrest Clubhouse was later sold and became the Crest Community Church.

In 1926, another ad appears in The Sun stating, Latest unit to be opened in Suncrest; Lots cost $58.00, $8.50 down, balance in 12 monthly payments with no interest. No longer was a mention in the ad that a subscription was needed. It further stated, 95 Cabins built in this fast growing mountain village and we are not yet 18 months old. It is only 22.5 miles from the city, it has the most magnificent view as well as olive trees, eucalyptus trees, high rocks, massive boulders, grassy plots, and level rocks. Suncrest – The Village of Views.

In 1960, the Suncrest Clubhouse building was purchased and remodeled it into the new Crest Community Church. Many community members were sad to see their social gathering place gone. The clubhouse that served as a source of entertainment and hub of activities for the Suncrest  community since the 1920s was disincorporated in 1961.
