BHS to raffle a Commemorative Guitar for Tavern Day 50th Anniversary

From now until Tavern Day, purchase tickets to win this handmade guitar to celebrate the 50th Anniversary of Tavern Day! Built and assembled by a local craftsman, it will be on display the meeting room of the Elton Tavern throughout Tavern Day, Sept 15. All proceeds go to the Burlington Historical Society’s Elton Tavern Restoration Fund. See flyer below for more details.

BHS kicks off the Elton Tavern Fundraiser!

We at the Burlington Historical Society are dedicated to restoring and preserving the iconic Elton Tavern and by now I’m sure you’ve seen the work taking place on the exterior of the building to replace rotting window trim and repaint the entire structure.

We’d like to thank our Town officials who have worked tirelessly with us to ensure this necessary restoration work is done and to preserve this local historic landmark. We welcome the public to visit and take a guided tour of the Elton Tavern this Tavern Day (Sept 15th) and to consider donating to this fundraiser so we can continue to support the restoration efforts inside the building as well. Feel free to use the form below or stop by our Membership table in front of the building on Tavern Day.
