Due to the upsurge of the Omnicron variant, The East Windsor Historical Society will postpone it’s Annual Board of Directors Meeting, that was scheduled for Saturday. January 15 2022, until Saturday, February 12 2022 at 10:30 am at the Osborn House 113 Scantic Rd East Windsor CT 06088. 

Great news, the museum will reopen beginning June 5th on Saturday’s 9 am to noon for visitors. We will be following state and local guidelines. We have been working on displays and maintenance during the shut down. One ongoing project is to create an online presence of our museum, and while we have a long ways to go before we finish, there is the beginning of our effort available on line now. You can see the beginning of it by following this link. https://ctcollections.org/index.php/Browse/objects/facet/source_facet/id/1762/view/images/key/e7ea7a9363bf62768d1a37a4a0c78efa

Scantic Green and Historic Marker Restoration

Posted on September 27, 2019 by eastwindsorhistory

Historical Marker Restoration – Funding Raising Campaign

The Historic Marker has been removed and shipped out for restoration as of Sept 25. Progress is being made on the Scantic Green with the planting of the white oak by the Girl Scouts this past Saturday. Update the new marker is in place on the green take a moment to see it. There is a photo of it being installed below. We can now accept donations via a credit card on our website or the link below.

The marker was installed 50 years ago when all 169 towns received an individualize marker. It needs to be sand blasted and powder coated to bring it back to life. It will cost $2000 including shipping and two upright posts.

This green is the gateway to Scantic, the center of East Windsor and we think it deserves sprucing up and a little Tender Loving Care.
