Podcast, exhibit opening, and motorcycles!

This will be a busy week for the Northfield Historical Society.

We are pleased to announce that the Northfield History podcasts are off and running.  You can view the videos here.  We are still working out a few kinks but they are up for your viewing pleasure.  If you cannot download the videos or do not have an I Pod/smartphone you can come by the museum and pick up a FREE RENTAL and a map that will take you on a walking tour of downtown Northfield!

Finally, this Saturday, August 28 will be the 3rd Annual Outlaw Run!  Registration starts at 9:00 and a bank raid at 10:00 a.m.  We will then leave Northfield around 10:30 and head out on the trail.  This is about a 100 mile run that will follow part of the James-Younger Gang’s escape out of Northfield.  All of the money raised by the Run goes to support the NHS Youth programs.
