The Westport Historical Society celebrated the 220th anniversary of the town’s incorporation by throwing a fundraising party at the Town Landing at the Head of Westport. Over 100 ticket holders to the June 30 sold out event were treated to a pig roast with all the trimmings and music by the Back Eddy Bluegrass Band. Hungry guests admire Smoke and Pickles chef Marc DeRego‘s skill at serving one of the two 75 pound pigs served. The evening also kicked off the society’s summer exhibition “Treasures and Traditions: A Portrait of Westport’s Past,” a look at the changing everyday lives of Westporters over the centuries.
