Junior Historical Society
 

       In June 2007 the Society’s Education Committee decided to rejuvenate the Junior Historian Program.  The committee, composed of five teachers and a librarian, thought that enlisting students to do a series of oral history video interviews of World War II veterans and others with memories of the war would be a good project to interest students in town history. Read about this project.

      In the photo, students visited the Wright Museum in Wolfeboro in preparation for the project.

      The Education Committee organized an archeological dig on the Smith property this summer with a professional archeologist who worked with the Junior Historians. An article on this project can be found in the Fall 2008 newsletter.  The education committee is also planning a project with the Sandwich Central School.
