On Saturday, May 10 from 10 AM to 4 PM, Wilton opened its doors to the general public.
Over 216 people visited Wilton, hosted by a spirited team of volunteers from the Middlesex County Museum & Historical Society, Inc. whose mission is to preserve, and foster the telling of, the rich history of Middlesex County. The open house raised over $5,000 for the museum and historical society.
The day before the open house, 60-plus members of the newly formed Tidewater Historical Society, located in Williamsburg, visited Wilton as part of a day-long tour of historical sites in Middlesex County.
