Thank you to everyone who came out last night for our 40th annual meeting and History Bingo. This season was a great one, so many new faces that visited. As winter approaches the museum will be going into hibernation.

We will try to continue the articles on Facebook as so many of you have enjoyed it, if you have any ideas on articles, photos that you might like to contribute, please reach out to us at [email protected].

We had an excellent tour of Hubbard Brook experimental forest with our guide Geoff Wilson. We learned so much and viewed several watershed testing sites. We also viewed the archive building that houses all of the specimens of water, leaf litter, and tree cookies dating back to 1967!

To honor the start of the 51st Annual New Hampshire Highland Games weekend (Sept. 18-20, 2026), step back into the spirit and strength of the 9th Annual Highland Games, hosted at Loon Mountain in Lincoln, New Hampshire, in 1984. This vintage footage captures amateur athletes from across New England coming together to compete in classic Highland events that celebrate tradition, community, and Scottish heritage.

Indian Head Resort, August 1927—Lincoln, New Hampshire

In the 1920s, Ray Gordon, founder of the Indian Head Motel Resort, hired Oliver Morris to live on-site with his tame New Hampshire Black Bear. Soon after, as the bear proved a popular attraction, Ray and Oliver added two more bears for guest entertainment. Eventually, the Clark family acquired the bears and incorporated them into their expanding attraction a few miles south.

On May 28, 1976, Norman B. Fadden stood at the entrance to a new landmark in North Woodstock, New Hampshire: the Norman B. Fadden Bicentennial Visitor Center. Built to welcome visitors to the area, the center stands on land Mr. Fadden provided to the State of New Hampshire for the project.
