WINTHROP – The Winthrop Maine Historical Society is celebrating the town’s 252nd birthday with a “Say Cheese!” birthday party from 9 to 11 a.m. Saturday, April 29, at the Winthrop History and Heritage Center, 107 Main St.
Winthrop turns 252 on April 26, and the party will feature children’s book author Karen Richards Toothaker, who will share her new book, “Say Cheese! A to Z,” and lead the group in an ABC hunt around downtown Winthrop. All ages are invited, both children and adults.
As the book title suggests, a camera (phone) will be needed for the walk-about in town, so participantes can take pictures of what they like best A to Z about Winthrop. The digital pictures will be curated
into a display for the history center. If weather does not allow for outside adventure, the ABC hunt
will be inside the center.
There will also be birthday cake.
The event is free and open to the public. Donations to help with the history center’s mission are welcome.
For more information, call the center at 207-395-5199, email winthropmainehistorical@gmail.com or follow Winthrop Maine Historical Society on Facebook.
