2019 – Local History in Pictures

As 2019 comes to a close here in the Somerset Hills, now’s the best time to take a look back at all the fun events, activities, posts, and images for 2019. While not in images, our biggest event was when we expanded, incorporated, and formally became a 501c3 non-profit community organization. Now we get to do what we do and do it with non-profit status. So now you can give tax deductible donations towards our programs and scholarship fund.

Please also let me take a moment to thank my wife Jill, as well as Meg Wastie and Paula Axt for joining the project and promising to bring a whole host of fun activities and events to the Mr. Local History Project in 2020. And it was such an honor to be selected as the official historian of Bernards Township. Honestly, how great is that!

There was so much going on, we decided to create Part II – enjoy.

Join us in 2020. We’ve created a new membership program. By becoming a member there will be lots of great activities and events just for our membership family, so please consider joining.

Here’s to an awesome 2020.
Hope you join our #mrlocalhistory efforts.
Mr. Local History Project
