Sunday, August 6, was actually a sunny day, and made for a great Old Time Fair.  It seemed to be a fun day for those that came to the fair.  We would love to get other ideas or things you would like to see, and what you think could be improved.  Send them to estinal@nullproctoracademy.org.  Thank you to everyone who was a part of it;  whether you were volunteering or came to enjoy the fun!  I’m so sorry if I missed anyone.

With gratitude and much appreciation from the Andover Historical Society for everyone’s contribution of time and hard work. Thank you everyone!
