WARWICK Library A Revolutionary War Interpretive program for kids and adults - Sunday, April 26th @ 1 pm: 1776 was a pivotal year in American History, and Warwick Library is pleased to host Thomas Quirk, a historical interpreter based in central Mass. When he was seven years old, Thomas attended a reenactment of the Boston Massacre and was immediately bitten by the eighteenth-century bug. Thomas is a current member of the Berkshire Fife and Drum Corps and Grand Republic Fife and Drum Corps, and is also a marching instructor. He provides an interactive experience with period clothing, goods, weapons, tools, and instruments - including a fife and drum demo!

NEW SALEM Old Home Day September 12 is looking to be better than ever this year. Music! Food cooked by firefighters! Crafts! A town-wide tag sale on the Common -- declutter your house or find a treasure! Win a cash prize for your excellent cake, or maybe even better, win a cake! March in a parade, play minigolf, volleyball, or kickball, take a tree tour. The focus this year is history -- learn about New Salem at the time of the Declaration of Independence, and learn about the people who lived here a thousand years ago. You can help organize any of these events -- sign up at Jeanneclayton27@gmail.com -- but whatever you do, open up your calendar now to September and mark Old Home Day September 12.
