Hebron Preservation Society Membership Month

Hebron Preservation Society is currently holding its annual membership drive. Our membership is growing! If you are interested in local history of Hebron and Washington County, please consider joining. We hold programs from April to November. Our events are usually held at the Hebron United Presbyterian Church East (HUPC East) at 6559 State Rte. 22 in East Hebron. Our programs are on a wide range of topics on local history from the past as well as history being made right now.

On April 11, 2024, we presented a program by Breadtree Farms (working to bring chestnut trees back to Washington County after an absence of over one hundred years) founding farmer Russell Walleck and his team. Almost 70 people from Hebron and surrounding communities in both New York and Vermont attended.

On May 23rd, we will be hosting "The Life and Death of Jane McCrea on July 26, 1777", a program by long-time Fort Edward Town Historian Paul McCarty. We will also be having a fund raiser/farm tour in September. For the first time in September, we will be co-hosting a program with the Rupert Historical Society (Vermont). The speaker for this program will be Vermont State Archeologist, Jess Robinson. The program will also be presented in Rupert, Vermont, just across the border.

The Society also owns the one-room Munson Hollow Schoolhouse, Hebron District #16, which is open a few times during the year. The schoolhouse is located on NYS Rte. 22 in the hamlet of East Hebron directly across the road from HUPC East.
