WALPOLE HISTORICAL SOCIETY, CHURCHES
TO HOLD SPECIAL HOLIDAY GIFT SALES
Walpole will be a busy place the weekend before Thanksgiving when the Walpole Historical Society and two of the town’s churches ring in the holiday season with special, not-to-be-missed gift sales.
The Historical Society’s gift shop will be open from 9 a.m. until 2 p.m. on Saturday, November 19, and from 11 a.m. until 2 p.m. on Sunday, November 20, to accommodate shoppers seeking something a little different to give friends and family this holiday season. Located in the old Academy building on Main Street, the gift shop is stocked with a variety of items from note paper and postcards to books, historical photographs, maps, the new 2006 Windows on Walpole calendars, tee shirts, tote bags, and much more.
Elsewhere in town, the Congregational Church’s “Mistletoe Mart” and St. John’s “Christmas Fair” will be open Saturday from 9 a.m. until 2 p.m. Both churches are located on the Walpole Common.
