“The Story of the Tower Family”
March 14th at 2:00pm
On March 14, 2021, at 2:00pm, the Clinton Historical Society will host it’s latest monthly presentation entitled, “The Story of the Tower Family”. From nearby Waterville to the Kremlin, from the iron mines of Minnesota to the race track of Sebring the Story of the Tower Family is a riveting account of one family’s impact on American history. Plan to listen in as resident and local historian Wade Lallier tells the story of this family dynasty of power and prosperity in the latter half of the 19th Century and the first half of the 20th century. The story begins with the prosperous businessman and father, Reuben Tower. Next came the rise of Charlemagne Tower (a direct descendant through his mother from the first Holy Roman Emperor) with his service during The American Civil War, his passion for land acquisition and major influence on the coal and railroad industries.
His son, Charlemagne Tower, Jr. became a professor at the University of Pennsylvania. He served as Minister to Austria-Hungary for President McKinley before being transferred to Russia As Ambassador. He later served as Ambassador to Germany under President Theodore Roosevelt.
Wade Allen Lallier, a resident of Waterville , holds a bachelor’s degree in social studies from Syracuse University. He is President of the Clinton Historical Society and author of “Chenango Canal The Million Dollar Ditch”.
Out of an abundance of care for the health of the public, there will be no in person audience. The program is free and open to the public. The entire program will be conducted virtually on March 14, 2021 via Zoom at 2:00pm. It will be recorded and placed later on the Clinton Historical Society You Tube Channel .
To gain access to the Zoom link for this event please contact the Clinton Historical Society’s e-mail address and request it: clintonhistoricalsociety1@gmail.com

- AROUND TOWN -

A beautiful dawn turned into a blue sky day with temperatures well into the 50s. 
Everyone smiled more, shed a few winter layers and proclaimed What a day!


Right along with the glorious day was the excitement over the soft opening of a storefront for the It Takes a Village Diaper Bank and Pass It On baby item exchange. 
A Pay What You Can system, the storefront will be open Monday & Wednesday from 3-6 pm and Saturday from 10 am - 1 pm* except for diaper distribution days which occur the 3rd Saturday of each month at the Waterville Public Library Community Drive-Thru and at Faith Furniture in Utica. They emphasized that Pay What You Wish means a variety of things: volunteering time, donating items, donating money, and other ways that you think can help. With a diaper wrapping station set up right in the store, it's easy to give back! 
The best way to hear about how and what they're doing, is to stop in and see Lyndsey, Kristina, or another volunteer and to maybe even wrap some diaper packs while they fill you in.
