At its monthly meeting on Monday, November 19th, the East Greenwich Historic Preservation Society will celebrate two significant anniversaries - the town's 335th birthday and the 45th anniversary of the Preservation Society's founding in 1966.  The Society was organized by concerned citizens when a gothic-style town hall was torn down for a parking lot. 

Eight members of the Society are descendents of the town's founding families.  Long-term residents will share their memories of what East Greenwich was like in the 1950s and 1960s.  It's open-mike night - come and reminisce with us.

Also, Sarah Hudson, project assistant for "Protecting our Past" will talk about her studies in Institutional History at RIC where she is a candidate for a degree in Public History.

The meeting begins with a potluck supper at 6:30 and the program begins at 7:30.  The event is free and open to the public.  To RSVP call Susan Curado at 884-4643 or lencu@cox.net.
