If you are going to be in the Elk County, PA area this weekend, you may want to stop in to the Elk Co. Historical Society located in Ridgway. We will be having an open house with dates and times as follows (Mark, PLEASE correct me on the list if I get any of this wrong!): Friday, December 1- 7-9 p.m. Saturday, December 2- 7-9 p.m. Sunday, December 3- 4-9 p.m. Both the Carriage House and the Center House will be open these days. The carriage house is where the Genealogy Department is located and the "Christmas Around the World" exhibit is set up. The Center House, located directly in front of the Carriage House is set up inside and out like an old fashioned Victorian home, with part of it set up as a doctor's office with some of Dr. Charles Early's actual equipment from the late 1800's! We will be having another open house the weekend of December 8, 9 and 10, but I will have to get more details on that and post it to the list at a later time.
