The Essex County Historical Society professionally advocates, promotes, preserves and unites those important themes that insure our Essex County history is accessible and survives. Our richest assets are the combination of documents, artifacts and art that with interpretation tell stories that strive to be an accurate, fair and authentic presentation of "The Human Face of the Adirondacks".

P&P 2026 is just about 24 hours from the start tomorrow morning at 9:00AM here at the Adirondack History Museum in Elizabethtown. We ordered the food last night when registration closed and we have ordered enough food to allow another 15 people to take part in this once in a lifetime event. So we have reopened registration through 8 PM tonight for any who have last minute decided they want to attend.

And the next 15 people can register for half price! 😉

We look forward to seeing you all tomorrow at the Museum.

Good Climbing!
