* May 3rd: Goffes Falls Heritage Day:
NEMC had a booth and display at this event to promote the Moxie Bottle House restoration project on behalf of the Matthews Museum. We sold teeshirts, hats, signs, and other items to benefit the project, and Moxie to benefit NEMC. The 12' replica Moxie Bottle Stand was at the event along with Jack Algeo's horsemobile and Russ Bilodeau's NEW moxie "bug"! Senators Deb Kure and Matt Bilodeau helped oversee the booth activities, and visitors included NEMC members Bob Ashburn who came up from Windham NH, and Bob Briere all the way from Sturbridge MA..
The Moxie Bottle house (click HERE for the complete story) was located in the Goffes Falls area for most of the 20th century (1910-1999).

A good time was apparently had by all, but when it came to local media coverage, NEMC president Lewis had to admit de-feet! HOME |
