2026 Season Porch Parties

OBIDIAH MANN'S VIEW Wednesday, August 26, 2026 5 - 7 pm

In “Randolph Old and New”, George N. Cross writes: “On the lands once cultivated by the Revolutionary patriot Obadiah Mann, Miss Mary Ingham, of Malvern, Penn., has a cottage on a site that for years has been a favorite viewpoint—commanding the grand ridges and ravines of Adams and Jefferson.” Elizabeth Hilles acquired the John Boothman-built cottage in the 1930s, naming it Inghamwood in honor of her friend and mentor. Her grandson Keith Dempster, and his husband Red invite you to confirm George’s assessment at our porch party. This porch party will end a few minutes before 7pm to allow guests to attend the Library event.
Proceeds from this Porch Party will benefit the NH State Trooper Association in conjunction with the Meet Our Police Community Event. Hosted by Keith and Redza Dempster
