The next business meeting of the Winthrop Maine Historical Society is set for 6-8 p.m. Thursday, Aug. 4, at the Winthrop History and Heritage Center, 107 Main St.

Throughout the month of August, the society will celebrate the one-year anniversary of the opening of the Winthrop History and Heritage Center. The society has accomplished a great deal since opening on Aug. 21, 2021. All the many accomplishments were only possible through the generosity of the many supporters of the society, according to a news release from the society.

The society is offering a free weekly drawing on Saturdays in August. Anyone who visits the center on a Saturday in August, will receive a free ticket to enter into a drawing; additional tickets will be given to those who simply purchase items from the center gift shop.
