The Mapleton Historical Society met at Goldstone United Church on June 9.
Guest speaker Mary Baldesaro, a member of the Baden Story Teller Guild, related several stories and sang a version of the Fair Flower of Northumberland. She explained how extraordinary happenings during an anticipated ordinary day become the basis for stories. She also urged the group to record family stories and memories of older family members.
Executives were elected: president Paul Day, vice-president Floyd Schieck, secretary Lori Flewwelling, and treasurer Helen Moffat.
Plans were made for a walking tour of Moorefield on Sept. 13.
