Today, Saturday, 12–2 PM.

We'd love to see you this Saturday!

It's our last open house of the season at the Goffstown Historical Society, and there's a little extra excitement this time around... THE TRAINS ARE RUNNING!

Our Lionel train room is always a favorite, so bring the kids, bring the family, and come enjoy a visit.

If you completed our Goffstown Scavenger Hunt, why not stop in and celebrate your accomplishment with a visit?

Join us Saturday from 12–2 PM. It's your last chance to visit before we close for the season.

WOO HOO! Congratulations to everyone who completed the Goffstown Historical Society Scavenger Hunt!

We had some wonderful participants, and we want to give a shout-out to those pictured below!

First up is the Sanders Family homeschool group, who turned the scavenger hunt into a big project and did an AMAZING job!

Next is Paula Baker, who enjoyed taking on the challenge and also completed the 603 Scavenger Hunt earlier this year. Way to go, Paula!

And last but not least, Darlene and Keith Mudge! Congratulations to both of you!

A big THANK YOU to everyone who participated and made this scavenger hunt such a success! We love seeing people explore Goffstown's history and have some fun along the way!

👏 WOO HOO, EVERYONE! YOU DID IT! 👏

This newspaper clipping dated October 31, 1974, shows first graders Glen Beauchemin and Carey Gagne working on a Social Studies project called “The Community” with their teacher, Ms. Chase.

It’s fun to look back at how students learned about their community more than 50 years ago!

Do you remember this project, Ms. Chase, or being in first grade around this time? We’d love to hear your memories.

We recently found this advertisement card for a Halloween Dance at Villa Augustina, held in Rosary Hall on October 23, 1971. The cost? Just a $5 donation per couple.

Villa Augustina is no longer open, but memories of its days in Goffstown live on through finds like this.

Did you ever attend a dance or event at Villa Augustina? We’d love to hear your memories!

A look back at October 1971!

Lincoln Heafield and Melanie Gibson are pictured checking out books from Mrs. Henry Foucher at the Maple Avenue Elementary School library. Mrs. Foucher was a member of the Goffstown Mothers Club, whose volunteers helped catalog books and check them out to students.

Do you remember the Maple Avenue library or having Mrs. Foucher as a volunteer? We’d love to hear your memories!
