On December 1, the Historical Society will hold its annual Open House at the Burnham Hibbard Museum from 1 to 4PM, with refreshments, musical entertainment compliments of Mark and Beverly Davis, and Santa Claus, who is ready to receive children’s wish lists and the evidence of their good behavior.

Following the Open House, children and their families are invited to the Community Center at 3:45 to make ornaments, and then at 4:30, Santa will join us and light the Christmas Tree at Town Hall as we gather in the Pavilion to sing carols.

On December 8, from 9AM to 2PM, Holt Hall will host the annual Holiday Bazaar, with local artists sharing their artistry, crafts and conversation.

And on December 15, families are invited to join members of the Believers Mennonite Church to carol to some of our elderly neighbors at their homes here in Hampton, starting at Town Hall at 5PM.
