After 50 years of existence the Sippican Historical Society has reason to celebrate.  On June 29^th, the non-profit will host an evening to commemorate the half-century milestone.  To be held at the Sippican Tennis Club, the party is open to society supporters past, present and future, and will include cocktails and hors d’oeuvres.

The evening will feature both live and silent auctions, with items to include vacation accommodations, gourmet dinner parties, day cruises and sports packages, among others.  Proceeds from the event will benefit the society’s ongoing endowment and preservation efforts.  Admission is $75 per person, and tickets can be purchased at the Sippican Historical Society (139 Front St. in Marion) or ordered by calling 508-748-1116.  Inquiries and orders can also be emailed to shs50anniv@gmail.com
