Connecticut Open House Day was a very special day at the David Humphreys House, on Saturday, June 12. David Humphreys himself, and his horse Huckleberry were on hand, and organized our Junior Docents into the Elm Street Patriotic Train Band! Colonial demonstrations for both young and old were featured, the Humphreys House was decorated for Flag Day, tours of the Elm Street Cemetery - there was something for everyone. Thanks to all who participated and visited. Click the thumbnails above!
