About the event
Festivities will begin on Thursday, October 12th, from 5:00-7:00 p.m. at the Fiske Library on Randall Road, in the Sweatt Room. You are cordially invited to view the items that will be placed in the time capsule!
Two picture books will be included in the time capsule. If you'd like to order copies, the links are provided below: Link to view and order the 1673-2023 book HERE Link to view and order the Grand Parade book HERE
We still have space if you'd like to contribute items to the Time Capsule! Whether it's family photos, historical artifacts, store signs, letterheads, old or new menus, we're interested. We're looking for anything that represents Wrentham – both past and present. You can drop off items at the town clerk's office or bring them to the open house on Thursday night to see if they can be included!
