The Totoket Historical Society is sponsoring a bus tour of the Tilcon Quarry at the corner of Route 80 and 22 in North Branford on Thursday, June 25 at 6:30 pm. Stone from this quarry has played a vital role in building infrastructure throughout Connecticut. Don’t miss this opportunity to visit North Branford’s “hidden quarry treasure.” The 90-minute tour will give you a chance to ask questions of the Tilcon guides and walk around the quarry floor, weather permitting. It is an amazing operation that you can only imagine when passing by on Route 80.
The cost of the tour is $15 for THS members and $20 for non-members. Checks made payable to the Totoket Historical Society, Inc. should be mailed to Box 491, Northford, CT 06472. Reservations are confirmed only upon receipt of payment. For information and reservations, call Florence at 203-484-5072 after 6 pm; or Cappy at 203-484-2133 during the day.
