Glastonbury History as Told by Residents

Roll out the red carpet. Thursday, October 18, 2012, is the world premiere of a special video project by Glastonbury Girl Scout Troop 10807.

The eighth grade girls videotaped seven longtime Glastonbury residents talking about what life was like when they were young. The oral history project was a joint effort by the Girl Scouts, the Glastonbury Historical Society and the Glastonbury Senior Center. The interviews cover topics ranging from family and school life to recreation, historical events and natural disasters.

The video will be shown from 6 to 8 p.m. at the Riverfront Community Center, 300 Welles Street.

Space is limited, so please call to register: (860) 652-7655.
