Dear Friends, Members & Generous Supporters

The Wayne County Historical Society (WCHS) has an amazing roster of events and activities this year and we’re calling on you as a business owner and/or individual to be a 2023 Sponsor! As a Sponsor, your contribution helps us to successfully launch free events such as the upcoming 10th Annual Canal Festival (August 19) or new events like Dining by History (Bodhi Tree + 6th and River, September 11-16). Your generous donation also helps to fund the general operating expenses of the WCHS Main Museum (810 Main Street, Honesdale), the D&H Canal Park at Lock 31, The Farm Museums at the Wayne County Fairgrounds and programs at Bethel School and the Old Stone Jail.

We welcome your attendance at our upcoming free Open House and ticketed WCHS Annual Dinner (November 5 at Lukans Farm Resort). At this year’s dinner we are looking forward to honoring Mrs. Paula Roos with the Richard L. Kreitner Award for Community Service for her life-long-commitment and contributions to numerous community organizations in Wayne County.
