Historical Society to Host 11th Annual Pig Roast

The Hampton Historical Society’s 11th annual Southern Style Pig Roast will be held on Saturday, September 1 from 12-2:30 p.m. on the grounds of the Tuck Museum, located on Park Avenue in Hampton.

Along with servings of delicious roast pork there will be a variety of salads, homemade baked beans, applesauce, our famous dessert selection and beverages. The afternoon includes a silent auction, music, activities for kids and a 50/50 raffle.

Tickets for the pig roast are $20 for adults; student tickets (for those ages 9-16) are $10, and children under 8 years old are free when accompanied by an adult ticket holder. The purchase of 10 tickets at once includes a table reservation.

Tickets may be purchased in advance at the Hampton Parks and Recreation Department, Marelli’s Market, Provident Bank, Lally’s Lighthouse Market and the Tuck Museum. Once again, the Society is pleased that the Provident Bank is the prime sponsor.

This popular event is the only fundraiser held by the Hampton Historical Society. The income to operate the Tuck Museum, along with a variety of school and community programs, is derived from the pig roast, so its success is vital to the financial stability of the society.
