STRATTON – The Dead River Area Historical Society in Stratton, will be open from 11 a.m. to 3 p.m. on Saturday September 4 and Sunday September 5. Join the society on September 5, for an Ice Cream Social from 1 to 3 p.m. and with ice cream you can enjoy a Brownie Alamode made and served by volunteers. Charlie Bruce and Peter Farnsworth will entertain us with a pleasant afternoon of music. This is the bicentennial of Stratton so the music will be from 150 years ago. Free ice cream and music? What could be a better way to spend the last day of the season! Everyone from everywhere welcome. Please bring your own chairs.
Money raised will go to the “Handi-Cap Bathroom Project”
