There will be a a display of vintage cars and machinery, and a quilt exhibit in the church sanctuary.

Children will be have a chance to meet farm animals in the Petting Zoo, ride the Barrel Train around the grounds, participate in a variety of children’s activities, or join the whole family on a hayride through the nearby farm fields.

Throughout the day, several local vintage base ball teams including the Chelsea Monitors, the Merrimack (“Merries”), the Dexter Union, and the Manchester Handlers will compete in a series of old-fashioned base ball games following rules from 1860.
