Welcome
WELCOME
Welcome to Experience Osterville 2016! This
year, we’ve got even more events, organizations,
and businesses to tell you about. You may be reading
this in our printed form (available everywhere, but the
Library always has extras if you need more for guests!),
or as our digital version at ExperienceOsterville.com.
Osterville offers great activities and resources for kids
of all ages, and this year’s guide is chock-full of ideas
to keep your little ones busy.
This will be my last time writing the welcome. This June, I will be turning the reins over
to a new president of the board. It’s been such a privilege to serve the library and the
community. We’ve made great strides not only by opening the beautiful new building,
but in developing leadership, staff and a board who can work together to make our
village library the best it can be. I’m grateful for all the support I’ve had, and proud
of all our accomplishments, including this Guide. Now in its fourth year, thanks to our
advertisers, the Guide has raised more than $65,000 to support the library.
Be sure to make the library a regular stop when you’re in the village. We’ll be
celebrating the arrival of summer with our expanded and enhanced Village Clambake
under the tent on the Library green on Sunday, June 26. The clambake kicks off a full
week of summer activities, as well as ticket sales for our big fundraiser, the annual
Car Raffle. Take a look on page 44 in the calendar section to check out the great set
of wheels we’ll be raffling off this summer. For the past couple years, the winning
number has been one sold early, so don’t procrastinate!
Also, reserve your spot early for the 40th annual OVL golf tournament on Saturday,
May 27. We’ll have a great day of golf followed by a cocktail reception and buffet
dinner overlooking the water at the Wianno Club.
To keep up with the latest Osterville has to offer, like us on Facebook, and visit
ExperienceOsterville.com and OstervilleVillageLibrary.org.

POLITICALPAST
Perhaps you’ve seen a motorcade or two going through Osterville with
the Clintons, the Bushes, or the Romneys. But maybe you didn’t know
that Osterville’s political past has deeper roots…
In 1840, William Henry Harrison became the 9th president of the United
States, and a young girl living in the village of Osterville took notice.
Sarah Boult always had a penchant for politics. For the first time, the
Whig party took control of the Presidency and Harrison’s “log cabin”
campaign emphasized that, “he was one of the people.” Sarah Boult
studied in Boston and returned to her native Osterville in 1906, first as
Wianno’s summer postmistress and later in a position at the Hyannis
Trust Company.
She continued her zest for politics – and her
collection of political memorabilia, including
a rare Harrison jubilee silk ribbon citing, “One
fire more and the day is ours.” That ribbon is
now in the permanent collection of the Osterville
Historical Museum – of which she was a charter
member.
Boult might have also been inspired by native
son Zeno Scudder (1807-1857). Scudder held the
highest political office of anyone from Osterville
– past or present.
Scudder for President?
Scudder, born and raised in the village, was also
a member of the Whig party and had dreams
of setting sail as a ship captain, but his health
deterred him. He took up law and served in the
Massachusetts state legislature from 1846-1848.
He held the title of senate president and his
special interest – American fisheries – was familiar
ground for this man born by the sea. Zeno then
rose to become a U.S. Congressman representing
the Massachusetts 1st and 10th districts.
He had hopes of higher office and would have
perhaps been Osterville’s first U.S. Presidential
candidate. But his health failed, and he was
forced to resign in 1854 and returned home to
Osterville where he died in 1857.

Today, many have memories of Camelot – right
here in Osterville.

Philadelphia, 1840.
Osterville’s native son Zeno
Scudder held the highest
political office in Osterville’s
history. A monument that
pays tribute to his service
to the country is located at
Hillside Cemetery.

President John F. Kennedy and his family would often travel by boat from
Hyannisport to Sampson’s Island. They would anchor and enjoy the solitude.
The Secret Service was often seen on the beach with their wing-tipped shoes –
a clue that a certain VIP was ashore again.
The Marlin was the boat of choice for these excursions. It was originally
commissioned by Edsel Ford and featured a rumrunner hull. In 1952, the
Kennedys purchased the boat. It was used for cabinet meetings, and in fact,
Kennedy learned of the Berlin Wall being built while aboard.
The Kennedy connection to Osterville and the Crosby family was well established.
Having built Victura, JFK’s wooden Wianno Senior, the Crosbys were already
known for their nautical craftsmanship. Victura, now housed at the JFK Library
in Boston, still returns to Osterville every winter for care.
Jackie Kennedy was a good friend of Mrs. Paul “Bunny” Mellon. The two would
often spend afternoons at the Mellon’s Oyster Harbors estate, enjoying the
ocean breezes or even sharing a loved pastime – painting.
And then there were the horses. Caroline
Kennedy and her cousins Maria Shriver, Sydney
Lawford, and others, rode horses on the land
behind the Osterville Elementary School on
Bumps River Road. The stables were located
where the Osterville Physical Therapy practice
is now. Seeing the horses promenade down
Pond Street was commonplace.
Osterville has been providing a respite for
political leaders and their families for centuries.
Keep an eye out for the next motorcade to
come through. In an election year, one never
knows who we might see.

JENWILLIAMS
Jennifer Morgan Williams
Jennifer Morgan Williams was destined to bring the Osterville Historical
Museum into the 21st century. Her love of her Cape Cod heritage is
matched only by her commitment to future generations to know and
appreciate theirs. She learned to swim in the salt seas of Nantucket
Sound, had her first date with her husband on Osterville’s shores, and is
now raising her four children in the historic Osterville home once owned
by her in-laws. It is impossible not to be swept up by the enthusiasm of
this articulate museum director with a passion for all things Osterville.
Her love of Cape history was evident at an early age when she collected
the vintage postcards that make up a significant portion of the recently
published Osterville Postcard History Series book – available in the
museum gift shop. After majoring in English at Wellesley College, she
honed communication and technology skills, earning a Masters degree
in Journalism from UMass Dartmouth.
The marriage of her passion for history with her facility for technology
proved a winning formula when working for the communications depart-
ments at Brandeis & Boston University. It also made her the perfect
candidate to transform Osterville’s staid museum into an interactive,
hands-on headquarters for kids and families. From the touch-screen
exhibit describing the museum’s beloved outdoor boat collection to
the World War II uniforms and letters of Osterville soldiers, the museum
captures the imagination of visitors of all ages and nationalities. As
Jen says, “If you haven’t seen us lately, you haven’t seen us at all!”
The user-friendly changes are evident at
first glance. Not only have the shutters of
the 19th-century sea captain’s home been
replaced and the walkway made more inviting,
but with the help of the Osterville Historical
Museum’s board, a quaint picket fence and
flowers have been reinstated. The boat shop
houses an impressive collection of historic
boats, including one built by ninth-generation
boat builder, Ned Crosby.
Community outreach efforts have resulted in
the successful Friday Farmers’ Market which
Williams calls “a gift to Osterville.” The
Farmers’ Market supports local Farmers’
and vendors while allowing townspeople
and visitors to enjoy the lovely grounds of
Osterville Young Leaders:

the museum. Jen is committed to caring for and sharing the
valuable, centrally located outdoor spaces properly. In addition
to the annual sold out “Pigs and Pearls” dinner with jazz and
auction under a tent, and the children’s Pirates and Mermaids
party, the museum hosts several weddings each year. Williams
explains, “This is not our main purpose, but it is lovely for
members of local families who grew up here to walk to the
museum, past their parents’ houses from the local church.“
Wedding parties are treated to a sailors’ valentine station
where the youngest members create keepsakes for the bride
and groom.
Williams sees her role as well as the role of the museum as
“creating archives for the next 100 years.” To that end, she must
juggle what she calls the three “r’s” of museum management:
resources, relationships, and relevance. So far, her love of all
things Osterville is keeping all three in perfect balance.

5:15 AM Bike to beautiful Dowses Beach to watch the sun
rise. Throw out a fishing line from the pier to see if the fish
are nibbling. Wave to the early fishing boats and scout the
beach for shells, crabs, or treasures left by yesterday’s
beach crowd.
7 AM Breakfast is ready! Try Café Crumb’s sticky buns and
frosted scones, Fancy’s almond croissants, AMIE’s homemade
blueberry muffins, or Earthly Delights’ veggie and scrambled
egg wrap. Wianno Green Café serves pancakes, and New
England’s favorite, Dunkin’ Donuts, awaits your order on
Main Street.
8 AM Play tennis at one of Osterville’s public courts: two off
Scudder Road in the town center and eight behind Cape
Cod Academy.
9 AM Discover the winding walkways of Armstrong-Kelley
Park. The 8-1/2 acres of rare trees and colorful plants also
contain a fish pond, a wooden train with a working bell, and
fairy gardens created by the town’s children. Join the fun
and create your own.
10 AM Take a stand up paddleboard lesson and tour the
scenic waters of East Bay. Stand Up & Paddle Cape Cod
has kid-friendly instructors for all ages and abilities. If
you’re staying a while, sign up for the Junior Sailing
Program at Wianno Yacht Club, open to members
and non-members, to learn to sail Osterville’s
stunning inlets and bays.

KIDSPERFECTDAY
After a winter of homework, carpools, deadlines, and demands, there is
nothing more freeing than a Cape Cod summer day. A world of possibilities
greets kids of all ages, from toddlers to teens. From boating to beaches
to biking to boarding, we share these ideas on how to fill a day with all the
fun Osterville has to offer.

KIDSPERFECTDAY
If you prefer dry land, head for the sunny children’s room at
the Osterville Village Library, where the children’s librarian leads
the ever-popular Lego Club, art projects, and story hours. If
your timing is right, catch a cuddle or read to Caz, the resident
therapy dog.
11 AM Beat the lunch crowd at Fancy’s Market and order the
California sandwich to bring to the beach. Not ready for lunch?
Get snacks and cold drinks at Cumberland Farms, which has the
Chill Zone flavored ice machine.
If it’s Friday, bike to the Farmers’ Market at the Osterville
Historical Society for food, fun, and treats. Check out the World
War II exhibit, the doll collection, and the antique boats.
Noon – 4 PM Afternoons are for picnics and swimming. Dowses
Beach boasts beautiful views, soft sand, and the warmest salt-
water swimming on the Cape. When the Sound side is windy,
the Bay side offers crabbing and wading in view of the many
boats anchored in picturesque East Bay. For freshwater
swimming, head to Joshua’s Pond, which is supervised by
lifeguards and surrounded by hiking trails. Nearby Micah Pond
is the secret destination of daring locals who swing from the
lengthy rope swing. Beach stickers are required for parking at
all town beaches.
4 PM Watch the yachts dock at Crosby Boat Yard. Listen for
the three blasts as taller boats call for the green drawbridge
to open. The Islander restaurant has a comfortable porch for
viewing and great appetizers to snack on.
5 PM Before dinner, bike, walk, or drive by the ocean front
homes of scenic Sea View Avenue until the road ends at the
Osterville cut. It’s the perfect place to watch the boats come in,
view the mansions of Oyster Harbors, and admire Sampson’s
Island sanctuary, a favorite family picnic spot.
6 PM Your toughest decision of the day may be dinner. For
takeout, Osterville Fish Market offers bulging, fresh lobster
rolls and delicious fish and chips. Next door, Pizza 1 Subs 2
sells classic, gooey thick crust pizzas. On Main Street, Crisp is
the place to go for thin crust pizza with table tennis, cornhole,
and a fire pit while you wait. For the young gourmet, Five Bays
Bistro is the most sophisticated restaurant in town. See more
ideas on page 23.
Jordan Bullock agrees with most kids that it’s being with family and friends
that makes Osterville so special. And says, “When I think of Osterville in the
summer I think of families on vacation, enjoying relaxing times at the beach
or just walking around town.”

KIDSSHOPPING

Shopping!
When you’ve had enough of salt, sand, and
sun, the many shops of Osterville’s Main Street are
ready for you. Here are just a few to get you started:
Osterville House and Garden owner James Coté will help you find the most
popular summer beach toys and games: the Waboba ball which skips and
bounces on water, Frisbees, Kadima paddles & ball, and kites.
Gift shops next door tempt with soaps, signs, and souvenirs. Oyster Island
Emporium sells colorful flip-flops, bright Vera Bradley bags, Cape Cod themed
jewelry, and sweet-smelling soaps. With a Twist is full of fresh, fun and
affordable jewelry, accessories and gifts.
Coastal Style sells a patriotic, red, white, and blue Nerf bat and ball, a cute
container for flip-flops, and a seashell nightlight.
Young fashionistas like In the Pink with its classic lily shifts and new line of
comfy shorts in beautiful pastels, as well as Details and Goods with its range
of colors and styles. Island Outfitters is full of nautical looking sweaters,
jackets, bracelets, and shoes. For the younger crowd, and anyone looking for
adorable baby presents, picture books, toys and snappy backpacks, Pocket
Full of Posies is the place. Owner Jenn Wass has created an inviting play area
for the little ones waiting while their parents get their beach towels
and robes to be monogrammed on site.
Books by the Sea sells wonderful children’s books – many signed
by local authors, cards, and guides to Cape birds, shells and
night skies. Pick up a sailor’s friendship rope bracelet as a
souvenir of your stay.
Corner Cycle has the latest bikes, from kick bikes with
“no pedals” for the youngest bikers to mountain
bikes, and flashy colored cruisers in tangerine, violet,
or polar blue.

Osterville’s village center is bursting with great eats and treats for kids.
Our informal survey of friends & family members aged 3-18 revealed
these favorites!
Wimpy’s Seafood Café and Market
The clam chowder, lobster rolls, and homestyle comfort food will put a
smile on the faces of children as well as their parents and grandparents.
Ten-year-old Annie Cronin says, “There’s something for everyone.” The
special Kids Menu features everything from hot dogs to fresh scrod &
veggies and includes dessert. Try the melt-in-your-mouth warm lava
cake! Dine before 5:30 and enjoy early bird prices. The adjoining take-
out market features fresh seafood, hot chowder, and the restaurant’s
most popular items.
Crisp Flatbread
In just two seasons, Crisp has become the go-to
family gathering spot. Not only are thin-crust,
wood-fired pizzas and pasta available with a
variety of yummy, farm-fresh ingredients but
outdoor “while you wait” activities feature table
tennis, two fire pits, and the ever popular cornhole.
Indoor and outdoor tables as well as takeout are
available. Liz Kass, mother of three-year-old Coco
and five-year-old Barrett praises the fresh salads
and the chance for parents to relax by the fire
pit while kids play cornhole with friends. Our
personal favorite is the s’more making kit, always
fully stocked by the fire pit.
AMIE Bakery
The goodies in the glass cases at AMIE’s would
make anyone’s mouth water. From chocolate-
dipped and kitty-cat-shaped shortbread cookies
to beautiful buttercream flower-topped cupcakes,
owner Amie Smith and her on-site bakers do not
disappoint. Our favorites are the sugar cookies
decorated with sunbathing gummy bears on
frosting towels. Chocolate along with peanut
butter cup flavored gelato runs a close second.
Amie’s mission is mentoring and her private
birthday baking parties and cookie/cupcake
decorating classes for kids are gaining popularity.

tossed from the old fashioned
cars at them Osterville Village
Day parade.” His mother, Jennifer,
recommends homemade goodies
from the savory pies to kettle
corn at the Friday Farmers’
Market on the lawn at the
Osterville Historical Museum.
Wianno Green Café
Nat Coté, the owner of this popular
breakfast and lunch shop, is happy to
let kids choose their own lunch fixings.
He and his crew serve the ever-popular
grilled cheese sandwich with any added
meat or vegetable. They’ll also make you
a PBJ or a turkey club. Pancakes are a
morning favorite. Breakfast sandwiches
are served all day. Frothy smoothies
abound in all flavors.
Gone Chocolate
When we asked kids to share their favorite Osterville food
memory, Gone Chocolate ice cream was at the top of the list.
According to our smiling scooper, Fabiola, the most popular
flavor for kids is bright, blue Cookie Monster, made from a
cookie dough vanilla base. ‘Tweens and teens go for frappes
at Gone Chocolate – most often Oreo or mocha chip. All ages
love rainbow or chocolate sprinkles and M&Ms on their cones
and dishes, although the cotton candy and bubblegum flavors
have the goodies mixed right in. The chocolate truffles lined up
in the glass case look delicious but who has room after the ice
cream? The youngest customers enjoy the convenience of
cones served upside down in a dish so they don’t miss a lick!

PAULCHESBRO
Paul Chesbro’s roots are firmly planted in Osterville. He remembers
Charles Jones and Albert “Allie” Colman driving their horse-drawn
wagons in Osterville Center when he was a boy in the early 1940s.
Just a few years later, Studebaker cars were parked along the side
of the street – a subtle indicator that times were changing. But what
had come before? What was it like when his ancestors walked the
streets of Osterville? Who were their neighbors? What was their life
like way back when?
Mr. Chesbro has spent his life in the service of carefully documenting
Osterville’s history (without a computer) by poring through records,
old photographs, grave rubbings, letters, and newspaper articles from
the past. His creative skills, together with a historical detective’s ability
to piece together the past have resulted in a series of books with jaw-
dropping photographs that make a richly rewarding read.
Ironically, it was a trip to Arizona that fueled Paul’s burgeoning passion
for learning about his own ancestry and Osterville history. On a tour
to the Grand Canyon while visiting a great aunt in Phoenix, he met
a woman from Bristol, Rhode Island whose son-in-law was Nelson
Blount, the owner of Edaville Railroad in Carver back in the 1950s.
Paul had heard his mother mention the name. When he returned
home, he learned from his great-aunt, Emily (Crocker) Hallett, that his
great-great-grandmother was a Blount.
Paul Chesbro
Digging into Osterville’s Past
cont’d
Paul Chesbro at his table in front of the Village Barber Shop, Main St. Osterville

About that time his mother became president
of the Osterville Historical Society. Paul started
displaying old photos from the museum’s archives
in the window of a local bank. When he started
writing about village history for the Village Advertiser,
the local weekly newspaper, people started to clean
out their attics and send him records and photos.
He spent hours at the Sturgis Library researching the
Barnstable Patriot archives from the 1830s and writing
down anything he read about Osterville. He wrote
to countless town offices and libraries for records
and information to complete the research. A big
find came when a house in the village containing
all the old town records from 1696 to the Civil War
was moved, and the records were given to him.
Another monumental discovery was an extremely
long letter written by Augusta (Lovell) Rich in 1877
that detailed the lives and locations of the families
and their homes in the village. In one of his books,
Paul assigned a number to each person mentioned
in the letter and then provided related photos, poems,
grave rubbings, records, and news items related to
that person.

a church in the village. Paul learned of Mr. Lovell’s
wishes in a poem that he received when he was
tracking down another Osterville descendant by
contacting the office at Mt. Auburn cemetery in
Cambridge. Mr. Lovell’s prayers were answered.
Paul learned that the Baptist church in the center
of the village was built over the foundation of Mr.
Lovell’s house. Paul actually got to see the original
Lovell homestead foundation when they were
adding onto the church.
Paul has spent thousands of dollars over the years to
research and publish his brilliant books, which are an
important part of the collection of local references
available in the Osterville Village Library’s Cape Cod
Room. If you’re here in the summer, look for Paul at a
table in front of the barbershop on Saturday mornings,
where he has three separate volumes available to
purchase. And don’t be afraid to sit and chat for a while.
You’re sure to learn something new about Osterville,
and he might even introduce you to the descendants
of people featured in your new book as they stroll by.

VILLAGETECHNOLOGY
Osterville and the other small villages of Cape Cod offer a respite from
a hectic and homogenized America of strip malls and box stores that
increasingly reflects the adage – everywhere is anywhere, and anywhere
is everywhere. Polls indicate many Americans, particularly millennials,
prefer to live in walkable areas with bike access to work, shopping, and
leisure activities. Simultaneously, technology is creating the opportunity
for businesses and workers to locate anywhere. As a result, Osterville
may in time become more a primary residence than a seasonal respite.
Village life sets itself apart. Osterville’s village center offers a mixed-use
residential, dining, and retail environment in a coastal setting of enviable
natural beauty. Its dense mixed-use character supports environmental
stewardship; its small footprint promotes accessibility on foot or bicycle
(promoting personal health and fitness); its library is a center of social
engagement and historical and cultural awareness. Village cohesiveness
fulfills a human desire for community.
Technology offers the opportunity to return to a more village-centric lifestyle
that allows residents to live, work, and play within their community. The
Internet, cloud computing, collaboration and mobility technologies more
and more enable seasonal residents of Osterville Village to increase the
frequency and length of their visits to this idyllic setting.
It makes no sense in the digital age to have hundreds of thousands of
people clogging deteriorating infrastructures to go to an office, sit in a
cubicle, and work on a computer. Technology is creating options for work
that will support more diverse living models.
Technological evolution is occurring in healthcare, education and
transportation, which will enable more full-time living in areas such as
Osterville. Telehealth, remote monitoring, digital records, and online
video consultations are allowing retirees, the elderly, and disabled to
remain in their homes with independence and dignity.
Transportation changes are creating more options for those wishing to age
in place. A younger generation values highly forms of transportation that
Village Life – More Please!
Technology offers village-centric lifestyle

have less impact on the environment. Regional transportation will improve,
personal transport via Uber-type options will increase, and driverless cars
will become a reality.
Home schooling increases every year. In our local public, private, and
charter schools nearly every student carries a tablet to school, textbooks
go extinct, homework and lecture switch places, and teacher and student
roles fundamentally change as the teacher becomes an enabler rather
than an instructor of students. This revolution will create more options for
families wishing to make Osterville their primary residence.
The table of technology is being set to allow a return to desirable village-
based living models. To gain a seat at that table requires that a community
have robust physical and mobile access to the Internet. Fiber optics,
with its near infinite data-carrying capacity, is the only long-term solution
to this challenge.
One organization that is looking to marry the ideals of the Village lifestyle
with technology is the OpenCape Corporation, a community non-profit
that has built a fiber optic broadband network in much of southeastern
Massachusetts and the Cape. It is servicing large enterprises and
institutions, including the Osterville Village Library. It is now expanding to
deliver fiber optics to cell towers to improve wireless service in the region.
OpenCape is developing a strategy, and seeking capital, to reach more
small businesses and ultimately residential customers in the region.
Community and business leaders recognize the Cape must protect its
environment, diversify its economy, and attract young families. Growing
demand for the village lifestyle and the technology revolution may put
villages like Osterville at the forefront of a return to village-based living.

The 135th Anniversary Project
In Search of our Past
Susan Belekewicz, Executive Director
Osterville Village Library
When you walk through the doors of the Osterville Village Library, you
enter the modern space of a four-year-old building. But under closer
inspection, there are a few indicators that the Library might have a more
storied past. An old “Public Library” sign is prominently displayed on
the great wall. At the Circulation Desk, a portrait hangs of a gentleman
from days gone by, the Library’s founder. And hidden in a corner of the
History Room, there is a small picture of an old library building.
These treasured relics are sparse evidence that our Library is in its 134th
year. Why are there so few vestiges of the past library? What happened
to its memorabilia? As an institution that has served as “the heart of the
community” for so many years, certainly there is more to be learned
about the stories and the history of the institution and its traditions in
the village. What are the stories of her past that has served to cement
this bond?
In 2017, the Osterville Village Library will celebrate
its 135th Anniversary. In anticipation of this event,
we embark on a research project to unlock the
mystery of the Library’s history and to source
artifacts and photos, to bring this history to life.
Our goal is to capture anecdotal stories from the
Library’s past and preserve them for posterity in
a documentary video. Patron interviews will be
digitally preserved and made available through the
Library’s website, to provide for ongoing learning.
Memorabilia and artifacts that are loaned to the
Library will be used to create a 135th Anniversary
commemorative display that will be featured during
the summer of 2017. Additionally, the Library plans
to publish a book about the library’s history and
discoveries made during this research project.
Help us preserve the past
The project will only be successful with the help
of the village. Many of you remember the former
building that was on this current site. There are
even those who remember the old structure that
stood on the current site of Osterville House &
Garden, and who can tell stories of Miss Kathy
Hinckley, the famed librarian who served the
community for 40 years.
The Old School House, home
to the Library until 1882.
Miss Kathy Hinckley, the
librarian from 1917 to 1956,
at the circulation desk. In
1917, the Library was wired
for electric lights.

LIBRARYANNIVERSARY
Many local families have lived their lives in Osterville for
generations. Not only do they have vivid memories of the
Library, but of the traditions of the library that have become
a part of the way of life in Osterville.
Did you know the people whose names in memory grace the
rooms of the Library – Bob Smith, Lillian Dixie Morton, Caroline
Crossett Rowland, Martha Hitchcock and Mary Mallory Kountze,
Anne Williams McGraw, Margaret Fulham Mullin, Alice and
Russell True, and Lyndon Paul Lorusso? We not only want
to remember these special people and what was important
to them about this library and this community, but to also
preserve their memory for the appreciation of both today’s
and tomorrow’s patrons.
The need for this historic preservation is critically important
for posterity before this anecdotal knowledge is lost. Join us
in this project – share your stories – be a part of this unique
opportunity to make history.
A storied past without the stories is a past forgotten. It is our
turn to capture the Library’s stories – future generations will be
grateful we did!
