Presidents Day, John Fell Day, Memorial Day, Flag Day, July 4th, Labor Day, Constitution Day  & Veteran’s Day,

For a $40 annual contribution we will place a flag for you on the front lawn of the Fell House.  This flag can be for you or named in honor of a veteran, historic figure (ie. John Fell) or person of your choice.  Your flag will also have a small sign hanging from the pole with the name of the donor and to whom the flag is honoring.   We will install your flag on the lawn and store your flag in between holidays.

Holiday Open House Sunday December 4th from 11am – 3pm

Holiday Open House Sunday December 4th from 11am – 3pm

Please stop by to tour the festively decorated John Fell House and learn about our plans for 2023.  A big thank you to the Allendale Garden Club for decorating the front porch and the music room.  You can also take family photos on the old-fashioned sleigh in front of the classic Fell House barn or in front of the house.  This is a free event, but donations are always appreciated.

A few Allendale organizations will be onsite including the Allendale Woman’s Club (AWC) which is once again holding a luminary fundraiser.  Proceeds will benefit the AWC and the organizations they support, many of which are local.  Luminaries will consist of a flame-resistant bag, a tea light and sand, ready for placement.    An Allendale town-wide lighting of “candles” is being encouraged at 7 PM on New Year’s Eve.
