Tour of the properties to be preserved in the Gilmanton’s Greatest Views - For Everyone, Forever campaign is offered on June 24th beginning at 1 pm.

 

The Gilmanton Land Trust invites the public to tour the four properties slated for conservation in the Gilmanton’s Greatest Views - For Everyone, Forever! campaign. The tour will begin at 1:00 pm, Sunday, June 24th, leaving from the barn in the hayfield on Meeting House Road. and take about one hour.

 

The tour will include a relatively level, mile-long walk on a trail to the shoreline of unspoiled Meetinghouse Pond, and a stop at the rare, historically significant flax "retting" pond used 200 years ago for processing flax into linen. Via carpool, the group will go to Loon Pond Road and walk to the historic Osgood Cemetery. Finally the tour will visit the top of Frisky Hill, with its famous views.

 

Project manager, Tom Howe, will co-lead the tour, along with other board members of the Gilmanton Land Trust. This will be a great opportunity to learn firsthand what this ambitious, $1.18 million land conservation campaign is all about, what makes these lands so special, and why the organization now has to raise only $151,000 more to achieve its goals.

 

To attend, arrive by 1:00 pm at the barn in the hayfield on Meeting House Road, in Gilmanton.

 

To reach the barn from the west, at the junction of Meeting House Road and Route 107, on Frisky Hill, go easterly on Meeting House Road for about 1.1 miles and watch for the barn on the left.

 

From the east, take Meeting House Road off Route 140; at the junction of Meeting House Road and Stone Road, go westerly on Meeting House Road for about 0.5 miles and watch for the barn on the right.

 

No RSVP is needed. For more information, check the website at www.gilmantonlandtrust.org or contact Tom Howe, [email protected], home phone is 364-6131.

 


 

Jeff Warner Returns To Gilmanton Historical Society With Music In My Pockets: Family Fun In Folk Music

Gilmanton JeffWarner-portsmouthNH.jpg

Jeff Warner brings "Music in my Pockets: Family Fun in Folk Music" to the Gilmanton Historical Society on Tuesday, June 26th 7:30 pm at Old Town Hall, Gilmanton Iron Works

 

Jeff Warner of Portsmouth returns to the Gilmanton Historical Society for another music-based program. Singing games, pocket instruments like spoons and dancing puppets, funny songs and songs passed down through generations will be seen, heard and learned.

 

The program, on Tuesday evening June 26th at the Old Town Hall, Route 140 in Gilmanton Iron Works, will be a treat for the whole family. We will revisit 1850 or 1910 in a New England town, with families gathered around the figurative hearth, participating in timeless, hearty entertainment and, almost without knowing it, learning how America amused itself before electricity.

 

With support from the New Hampshire Humanities Council, the Historical Society looks forward to welcoming Jeff’s return to Gilmanton. There is no charge (donations are welcome).

 

Plan to visit the Historical Society’s museum, in its new quarters at Old Town Hall, at 7 pm. Refreshments and social hour begin at 7 pm. The program begins promptly at 7:30.
