FRIDAY, NOVEMBER 6 at the St. Albans Historical Museum: The 56th Annual Meeting of the League of Local Historical Societies (register by October 26). A day-long event of workshops, speakers, tours and a very special awards ceremony. For details and registration visit the Vermont Historical Society. We've also received word that the Starksboro Historical Society will be given an Award of Excellence for Society Operations. The VHS Awards Committee tells us, "The Societies' work on their website provides visitors with a comprehensive view of the society, all it has to offer, and the promise of things to come. The site is very well organized, attractive and informative. Your fairly new society is afforded the limitless possibilities that technology can uncover."

SUNDAY, NOVEMBER 8 at the Henry Sheldon Museum (Middlebury), 1:30pm: A special Veteran Day community event exploring regional connections to the Civil War, featuring a 19th century foods potluck. Hear stories and see artifacts that relate regional towns to the Civil War. The museum is located at 1 Park Street in Middlebury. For more information contact Susan at 388-2117. Admission is something for the food shelves in Middlebury. We will be sharing the service of Starksboro's Joel Carpenter, a private in the 4th and 9th Vermont Regiments.

The first draft of a Lake Champlain Basin Program-funded Wayside exhibit featuring the stores in the Starksboro village center. It will eventually be located at the L.S. Gordon Store turnout, joining two others featuring Lewis Creek Valley and the Green Mountain Cold Spring Creamery. If anyone has suggestions for edits or additions to the information presented, please let me know - Since space for the main text and photo captions is limited, I'd like to make best use of it and make it as interesting and informative as it could be - your input is welcome! (Note that the second version of each part of the text will be translated into French - the duplication is not an error).
