NEWS FROM ARCHIVES
ARCHIVES- Archives are open for research on most Fridays 3-5pm. Check the web-site for the schedule. We are always working on the files two Mondays a month and most Fridays. Help is always appreciated! We have a Junior Brigade of three middle schoolers who are volunteering. It is pretty neat that they are interested in Clinton’s history.
