About this Event
Native American life in Ridgefield is the topic for the next gathering of the Ridgefield History Club at 10am on Tuesday, November 19, 2024, in the Historical Society’s Scott House at 4 Sunset Lane in Ridgefield, CT. Ridgefield History Club programs are free and open to everyone; new participants are welcome at any time. Come to share memories or just to listen.
Ever wonder what life was like 10,000 years ago? Explore the life ways of the first people to inhabit these lands. They were hunters and gatherers who were subsiding off of big game animals like woolly mammoths and mastodons. We will be looking at stone tools left behind in Ridgefield and uncovered by professional archeologists.
The Ridgefield History Club, an informal community storytelling program (it’s not a lecture) of the Historical Society, meets for an hour the third Tuesday of every month to share memories and stories related to a specific topic in Ridgefield’s history. The discussion is recorded and cataloged in the Historical Society’s archive to preserve all the stories of Ridgefield’s people, places, and events for future generations. It’s also streamed live on Facebook and is uploaded to our YouTube channel.
Everyone is invited, just bring your love of history and your curiosity. Some people come to every session while others attend when the topic is of special interest to them. This is a great opportunity to connect with other history enthusiasts and learn something new about our wonderful town. Both longtime residents and newcomers contribute.
Seating is limited at the Scott House, so we ask that you register in advance here.
