Community Events
The Historical Society sponsors a number of events for the community each year. Everyone is welcome to attend, and everyone is even more welcome to help. However, as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic, many of the Hulmeville Historical Society events may be reformatted to minimize person-to-person contact. If you have any questions or concerns, contact Rose Bonaventura by email rose1507@verizon.net or telephone (760-677-9176).
Below is a listing of some upcoming events, as well as any special work details or events scheduled.
