Ridgefield History Club

A monthly gathering to share memories and recollections of our town.

The Ridgefield History Club, a program of the Ridgefield Historical Society, is debuting in May 2023 at the David Scott House, the headquarters of the Society.

The History Club will meet regularly throughout the year to discuss the history of Ridgefield and all its villages including Branchville, Titicus, Farmingville, and Ridgebury. All are invited to attend this free program.

The Ridgefield History Club is an informal story telling session (it’s not a presentation or lecture) where everyone sits in a circle and shares their memories related to a specific topic in Ridgefield’s history. The discussion will be audio recorded and catalogued in the Historical Society’s archive to preserve memories about all of Ridgefield’s people, places, and events for future generations.

Attendees are encouraged to share their stories with the group or just come and listen to the fascinating conversation about our town’s past. All are reminded to bring related photos and objects about Ridgefield’s history for ‘show and tell.’

Parking at the Scott House is limited, and registration is required to attend. Carpooling is highly encouraged.
