ACWORTH, N.H. – Where does time go? Seems like yesterday, but it’s been 12 years since the steeple was put back on the Acworth Meetinghouse and 11 years since the painting was completed. The Friends of the Acworth Meetinghouse are now having two sides of this magnificent building painted again and planning to get the rest done in a timely fashion.
With the help of the United Church of Acworth, we’re also planning a 200th anniversary celebration for the meetinghouse and a horse shed dedication for Aug. 14, 2021. Please put this date on your calendar and plan on helping us celebrate!
We are planning events all day including vendors selling their wares on the front lawn, a Chicken BBQ at noon, a welcome ceremony at 10 a.m., and the horse shed dedication at 1:30 p.m., as well as a ringing of the Revere Bell in memory of people or in honor of people. Hopefully we will be giving tours of the building. Please come and bring your friends and relatives. We’d love to see and talk to all of you and show off our historic accomplishments on Aug. 14.
