The Women’s Softball Team was started as an extracurricular activity for women members of the company. It plays other publishing company teams in a special company league.
Team activities take place in the spring and summer of each year.
The company started in the funeral business under the name of Riverside Funeral Chapels and expanded by going into the parking-lot business under the Kinney Corporation. Once in the funeral and parking-lot business, it further diversified into office-building cleaning and maintenance, publishing, and construction services. It then acquired the Ashley-Famous Talent Agency and, in 1969, the Warner Brothers. Today it also involved in cable and public TV, the recorded music industry, and music publishing.
