The Washington House is glad to partner with Mr. Local History and their organization on Saturday, December 7,2019.

Specials will be announced in advance of that weekend and warm drinks will be available for purchase that day, for the younger set AND adults! Make sure to dress warmly!

ON THE HEATED PATIO! Come out on the heated patio at the Washington House as adults will be coloring and signing cards for our Troops. So it’s not just for KIDS (but we love the kids cards! You color, you write, and we send on the town’s behalf.

Santa’s helpers will be there to assist the kids as they customize a free card for their family. A great keepsake year after year.
