2009 Calendar Now Available

Look Familiar?

The Chatham Historical Society annually publishes a calendar; each offers a photographic journey through East Hampton history. The 2009 edition again includes a glorious selection of archive photographs held by the Society. This year, the Society celebrates the spirit, force and variety of businesses and business owners who served our community in years past.

Whether you have lived in town for a few or many years, the calendar provides an inexpensive way to explore the history of our town month-by-month and throughout the year. It can be a great tool to teach your kids how different buildings have been used over the years or it can provide a touch point to those of you who remember when...

Calendars cost $7 and are available for purchase at the East Hampton Public Library, the Town Clerk's Office, The Village Merchant, or from Society members. If you are an out-of-state resident and wish to purchase a calendar, mail your $7 check, payable to the Chatham Historical Society, to S. Doran/CHS, 60 Colchester Av., East Hampton, CT 06424.
