Also in July, the opening of the Marbletown Schoolhouse on Saturdays from 1 to 3.  Come see the latest addition, a beautiful “old school clock” donated by Eric Hooker, curator of the Hoffman Clock Museum.  They were actually used in school classrooms, having the classic octagonal-sided top.

Security Improvements

You may have noticed that you no longer see the “not secure” notice on the web address bar.  N-AHS has migrated to an “https” address along with its secure encryption.  You really had little to fear from visiting the old address since personal and credit information was not collected on the site, but we are nevertheless happier by being up to date with security.  We apologize for the time the site was down while we were making the change, but hope that you will enjoy the many features to come.

Membership Dues Mix-up

We here at the Newark Arcadia Historical Society are suffering from the law of unintended consequences.

Perhaps you read page 15 of your  March 2019 newsletter and noticed the dues reminder.  If you then looked at the mailing label, you would notice that the only date listed was 3/14/2019.  This may have led you to believe that your membership fee was due on 3/14/19.

The insertion of the dues reminder column into the newsletter was unintentional.  We have switched to a new USPS system for our mailings and as a result, the dues-expiration date normally printed on the labels is no longer there. The date you see on the labels is the date the labels were printed.

We apologize for this unfortunate situation . If you have any concerns or questions regarding your membership, please contact the museum at 315-331-6409, or email arcadiahistory@gmail.com .

Dues are normally paid in December.  Those having sent renewal checks that are not due will have their checks returned to them.
