Waterville Public Library

Author Event: Stephen Clark on 12/6/2015

Stephen Clark will give a lecture called "Waterville's Only Military Campaign, The Arnold Expedition of 1775" at the Waterville Public Library on Sunday, December 6, 2015  at 2p. Although the lecture will deal with much more than its brief passing through what is now Waterville, it will tie the present day into the past. For instance, where was the historic portage trail that was utilized by the 1100 soldiers as they passed around Ticonic Falls?

The lecture will describe the famous men who participated in the expedition, and the many hardships experience by these brave men. We will have actual artifacts recovered from their passing, 240 years ago.

This event is free and open to the public. Light refreshments provided.
