MACEDON HISTORY

The Bullis family's contribution to Macedon has been - and continues to be - significant. So we're looking forward to a presentation on Macedon history, to be held in the Community Room here in the library on May 16.

Author and long-time Farmington resident Reginald W. Neale will display and discuss a series of historic photographs of Macedon. Neale is currently at work on a pictorial publication focusing on Macedon, and it is scheduled for release in August 2013. This current work is part of Arcadia Publishing's "Image of America" series, which chronicles the history of small towns across America using vintage photographs and hometown stories.

Those of us who "hang around" the Bullis Room are looking forward to Neale's presentation, and we anticipate that we will come away with a better understanding of our town. So if you're interested in Macedon history, we hope to see you on Wednesday, May 16, Macedon Public Library, 30 Main Street. The talk is facilitated by the Friends of the Macedon Public Library and is free and open to the public.
