Millerton’s annual Dine Out series returns

MILLERTON — The North East Historical Society’s Dine Out for History is returning this year with six participating restaurants.

On select dates from Sunday, Jan. 26, to Wednesday, March 19, restaurants will be hosting “Dine out for History” night. Ten percent of the profits will be donated to the North East Historical Society.

The donations will help the organization perform further research, digitize more of their collections and create content available for the public, especially teachers.

In conjunction with the North East Historical Society, the Millerton Inn will kickstart the celebration on Sunday, Jan. 26. Attendees may participate in an optional short presentation and a local quiz, beginning at 5:30 p.m. Attendees of the presentation will be offered a free glass of wine to enjoy with their meal at the Inn afterward.

More participating restaurants are Taro’s on Thursday, Feb. 6; The Oakhurst Diner on Sunday, Feb. 16; Willa on Thursday, Feb. 27; Round III, on Monday, March 10; and the Golden Wok on Wednesday, March 19, takeout only.

To ensure a table is available for your party, reservations are preferred for most participating restaurants.

For a reminder of this upcoming event, please sign up for the North East Historical Society newsletter by contacting Ed Downey at eddowney12@gmail.com.

America was founded by disaffected people. America was populated – in waves of immigration – by disaffected people from across the globe. Not one person who immigrated to America who came here hundreds of years ago, two hundred years ago, one hundred years ago, fifty years ago, or in the past few decades came here to become part of a rigid and fixed establishment, to become a sheep as a followers, nor just someone to fit in with a crowd. Americans, each and every one of us, are ambitious, fiercely independently minded, setting personal freedom as our core existence, never permitting the concept of loss of liberty to become commonplace.
