Members are welcome at all Board of Directors Meetings and at all Work Days. Please call Skip Webb at 603-926-3851 to find out where a Board of Directors Meeting or a Work Day will be held. Work days will in most cases be held at the James House. When a work day is held at the James House, the House will be open for tours, but docents will not be in period dress. A members help during any part of a work day is appreciated.

The house will be opened for tours periodically on unscheduled days between 1:00 and 5:00 pm. These days will be announced by signs placed on the corner of Exeter and Towle Farm Road and the corner of Drakeside Road and Lafayette Road.

The house will also be open for tours between 1:00 and 4:00 pm on all special event days. On special event days docents will be in period dress.

To take advantage of an increase of available workers, the number of work days has increased, but fewer special events are being offered in 2012.
