The Ridgefield Historical Society is seeking to record the experiences of Ridgefielders whose lives were touched by the events of 9/11.
Founded in 1907, the Ridgefield School for Boys boarded boys ages 11-18 preparing them for college and beyond.
Historical Society’s annual 9/11 remembrance exhibit in Town Hall now includes a banner created by Veterans Park Elementary School students, guided by art teacher Leslie Hudson-Tolles in 2001.
