Old Home Week has come and gone for another ten years. The society had a wonderful turnout during OHW and it was a pleasure to have so many visitors who stopped by to look over the displays, go on a walking tour, or attend our pancake breakfast fundraiser, which turned out to be a great hit. Through the generosity of Al & Sue Wurzberger we were able to reproduce "An Historical Address" from Old The Old Bank - Smyth Collection of the Historical Society - the site now becoming a town park due to the fire on Easter Day 2007 (click to enlarge) Home Week 1950 by Guy C. Hawkins to use as a fundraising tool which came out in time for Old Home Week. If you did not get one, and would like a copy, please contact a society officer or member.

At Historic Park-McCullough, you experience the grandeur of the house often described as "one of Vermont's jewels". You also participate in the elegant lifestyle made possible through vast wealth accumulated during the California Gold Rush era and subsequently added to through business dealings in finance, railroads, steamship lines and real estate development.

The thirty-five room Park-McCullough House was completed in 1865 for Trenor and Laura Park. Park engaged architect Henry Dudley, of the New York architectural firm, Diaper and Dudley, to design his "summer home", a classic example of French Second Empire style.
