Turnback Tuesday brings us back to the Derby Tercentenary Celebration in 1975.
The 10-day event took two and half years to plan with hundreds of volunteers of all ages. Pictured on parade day from left:
Mayor Francis Kelley of Shelton, Mayor Michael Adanti of Ansonia, Attorney General Carl Ajello, and Seymour First Selectwoman Anna LoPresti.
If anyone knows who the woman on the right is, please let us know. The Library has a book of photos from the 300th Celebration and need help identifying her and other people.
Please contact the Derby Public Library if you can help. Thank you.
Thanks to the Derby Public Library staff for sharing interesting local history each week.
SHELTON - Olaf, Sven, Elsa, and Anna!
Do you have a fan of this icy adventure, Frozen? Join us on Saturday, Jan. 11 from 11 a.m.-noon at Plumb Memorial Library's Meeting Room for the classic game "BINGO" with a Frozen twist!
Instead of looking and listening for letters and numbers, you will listen and look for words and pictures associated with the movie, Frozen. And yes, there will be a chance to win a fabulous prize or two!
This program is for children ages 5-14 and their caregivers.
Caregivers are required to remain with their child for program duration.
Please enter Plumb's Meeting Room from doors across from parking lot. The Library is at 65 Wooster St.
