MHS Donor Card

     Thank you for your interst in joining our organization.  We’re writing you to solicit your support for, and membership in, the Montgomery Historical Society for 2009.  Even in the best of times raising funds is a difficult task, and our current economic condition does not make it any easier; but the need is great. 

     2009 is the Society’s 35th anniversary.  To celebrate we plan to show the packing case exhibit again and mount an exhibit of Montgomery’s Marion Towle’s paintings and embroidery.  We plan to open Pratt Hall weekends for public viewings and hope to add a few other treats from the archives as well.
    
     Our 2009 programs include the annual Memorial Day Commemoration, speakers, scholarships, and Pratt Hall maintenance.  Fundraisers and activities will include the annual Art Show and Sale and “Concerts By The Common”.  We will also continue to receive, preserve, and archive the artifacts important to our community’s past, and welcome your donations of pictures, letters, and other ephemera.  We remain committed to making your history more accessible to you and have contributed articles to the Town Report and posted them on our web site. 

     Your membership makes this all possible.  Your membership dues, or donation of any kind, is completely tax deductible and will be spent entirely on history-related community programs and restoration activities.  You can also make an additional donation targeted for Pratt Hall or any other purpose.  If you have any questions please contact any member of the Board of Directors listed below. 

     Thank you for your support,
     The Montgomery Historical Society Board

Scott Perry, Bill McGroarty, Marijke Dollois, Sue Wilson, Parma Jewett, Tim Chapin, Ken Secor,
Elsie Sabarowski, John Beaty, Jo Anne Bennett, Bill Branthoover, and Pat Farmer.

P.S.  Beautiful note cards featuring Pratt Hall’s stained glass windows are available.  They make a great gift and can be purchased via our web site, from local businesses, or by calling any member of the Board.
