The West Kill / Lexington Community Improvement Association
The West Kill / Lexington Community Improvement Assoc. is seeking donations to pay their insurance bill and to replace the double doors in the dance hall, so they can reopen the Hall. The Hall is needed to hold fundraising events so that the Association can continue their important work in our communities.
In 2013, 200 years will have passed since Lexington was separated from Windham, and so we will celebrate our official 200th birthday. Also in that same year, Lexington, Massachusetts, the very town we were named after, will celebrate its 300th birthday. We have been in contact with both Lexington, Massachusetts, and with Goshen, Connecticut, where many of our first settlers came from, regarding this celebration. Next year, 2009, we will use this site to post information as this event begins to take form.
The Town of Lexington is interested in adding current and historic pictures, postcards, or documents to our web site. Anyone who has documents or pictures of historical interest and would let us borrow them for scanning, please contact Rose Williams at 518-989-6476 ex 10. All documents will be safely returned.
