Ridgefield History Club: Santa Claus is Coming to Town

Santa will be represented at the Ridgefield History Club’s holiday gathering on Tuesday, Dec. 15, at 10 a.m. where we will look back at some of Ridgefield’s Santas from years past, share holiday history and cheer, and invite you to bring your own holiday stories to share. There may be some surprises!

The Ridgefield History Club is an informal community storytelling program of the Ridgefield Historical Society. The group meets for an hour on the third Tuesday of every month to explore a specific topic in Ridgefield’s history through shared conversation.

Each session is recorded and cataloged in the Historical Society’s archive to preserve these stories for future generations. The program is also streamed live on Facebook and uploaded to the Society’s YouTube channel. Everyone is invited—just bring your curiosity and love of history. Some attend every month, while others join when a topic holds special meaning for them. Longtime Ridgefield residents and newcomers alike are welcome. This free program is a wonderful way to connect with others and discover new insights into the town’s heritage.

For more information, contact the Historical Society at 203-438-5821 or [email protected]. Parking and seating at the Scott House are limited, and registration is requested for this free program online here:
