Thank you to everyone who came out to honor our Veterans today!! Due to the forecast for rain on Saturday, Dec. 15, 2018...we have made some arrangements for a plan "B". If it is still raining at 11:30am....we will all meet at the Hill Memorial Museum (82 Main Street, corner of Church and Main) at 12 noon...we will hold the ceremony upstairs and then walk across the street as a group and lay the wreaths. You may still park by the cemetery (enter between the buildings, following the signs) in the old McGuire lot. Please do not park on the grass so that we may allow for the rifle salute. The museum will open its doors at 11:30 am. Hope to see you there. Museum Monday #11 - We will be holding our annual Holiday Open House on Friday, December 14th from 6-9 pm. This event is free and open to the public. Stop by and check out the new exhibits and Christmas decorations. Enjoy the "colors" of the fireplace as a black light highlights the many fluorescent stones. Take a tour of the Tully House - one of two buildings that have been donated to the Society and is going under renovation. Refreshments will be served. (Hill Memorial is located at 82 Main Street, Newton - at the corner of Church and Main) Fellow SCHS Trustee Ron Dupont put on a presentation at Vernon Township HS.
