Candor Historical Society announces Fall Festival of events

The Candor Historical Society is happy to be part of the Candor Fall Festival again this year. They will offer their annual Bake Sale and Flea Market on Saturday, Oct. 10, from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. at the Candor Masonic Lodge on Route 96B.

Prior to the event, donations of items (no clothes) are always welcome and can be either dropped off on Friday, Oct. 9 starting at 1 p.m. or by contacting Milt Dougherty to make other arrangements. Donations of Baked Goods are always welcomed, and should be dropped off Saturday morning, starting at 8 a.m. For more information, contact Milt Dougherty by email to mhdough@frontiernet.net of by calling (607) 659-7357.

There is always something for everyone at very low, reasonable prices to include kitchen items, electronics, knick-knacks, linens, games, books, etc. So stop in, browse a bit, chat with Society Members and guests, and stop at the book-nook where Historian Carol Henry will have a blend of Candor History Books, her 1877 American Historic Novel, as well as her latest Contemporary holiday suspense novel. Consider joining and supporting the Historical Society while you enjoy a free cup of coffee.

As an extra event sponsored by the Candor Historical Society, don’t miss out on the historic tour of Maple Grove Cemetery. The fun and educational tour will introduce you to some of the art, architecture, and people of Candor’s past. The guided tour starts at the front entrance to the cemetery at 2:30 p.m. on Saturday, Oct. 10 (rain date is Sunday, Oct. 11, at 2:30 p.m.).
