Please follow us on Twitter: @ClintonHistSoc Six days a week, we'll send out historical information, trivia, or old photographs. Please LIKE us and RETWEET our messages! We need your help! Coulter Press, before they closed the Item office on Church Street in Clinton, promised us the complete collection of 400 bound volumes of the original Clinton Courant, along with the remaining Clinton Daily Items and The Item. Most of these books are 1 to 4 inches thick and about 22 inches high. They are located in the attic of the Item office building and need to be moved to the attic of the Holder Memorial on Church Street. The move will take place beginning Saturday morning, March 6, at 9:30 a.m. at the Item office with a rain/snow date of March 13, same time. Special shelving has been built in the Holder attic for these historic volumes but it will take MANY volunteers to get them in their proper place. Constellation Energy is paying for any expenses and for a pizza party after the move for all volunteers. If you can help us, please call the Holder Memorial at 978-368-0084 and leave your name and phone number on our answering machine or email Society President Terry Ingano at: terryingano@gmail.com The more volunteers we can get, the quicker the job will get done! Please help us save these historic local newspapers. Although no formal programs have been scheduled this year due to COVID, the Holder is open every Saturday, 9 a.m. to noon, with FREE admission. Stop by and see our new exhibit room on the first level. ADMISSION TO ALL REGULAR INDOOR PROGRAMS FOR NON-MEMBERS WILL BE $5 PER PERSON |
