 Sincere Thanks to Our 2007 Sponsors
  January 6th, 2008
 
 

As the new year begins, we sincerely thank the area businesses who supported our work during 2007. Some of these businesses donated money, some products, and others offered us substantial discounts. It is no exaggeration to say that special events in 2007, such as Old Home Day, the Harvest Dinner, and our bluegrass concert, could not have happened without such sponsorship. The funds we raise through these special events directly support the society's projects and program speakers' fees.

When deciding where to spend your money, we hope you will give special consideration to these 2007 Canterbury Historical Society sponsors.
