June 2005-The Charlton community is fortunate to have so many dedicated to the preservation of the town’s history. The Rider Tavern is the center of historical information for the town and is used regularly to host events. The building is currently being renovated in anticipation of Charlton’s 250th Anniversary events in the fall.

Southbridge Savings Bank has operated a branch office in Charlton since 1976, and has been in continuous operation since 1848. "Our ties to the local community are very strong, as is our dedication to supporting the efforts of groups such as the Charlton Historical Society", commented Joseph Sandagato, Director of Sales and Marketing. "Our own history, over 157 years in the making, has deep ties to Charlton and the surrounding communities. We are proud to support such worthwhile causes."

The $250 donation from Southbridge Savings Bank will be used to assist with the repairing and painting of the building. Providing a stable environment for the archives and historical artifacts allows the historical society to continue to provide the public access to the resources available. To make a donation or for more information, please contact Don Weinhardt at 508-248-1632.
