The Fairfax Historical Sociaty had a display at the inaugural Franklin County History Expo, held at the Franklin Town Hall. This will be held every other year, to fill the gap the years the Vermont History Expo is not held.
This was a very well attended event, and gave an oppertunity for the county's societies to get together.
Many thanks to Paddy Shea, who transported items to and from our museum, and helped run our display.



Our display.


We went with a theme of "Made in Vermont. Made in Fairfax." We used pottery jugs, products from the old Spartan Industries, and Bert Rich's wooden leg.
