Tours leave the Station, which will be open until 1:30 PM, and include visits to the Nellie Hoffman house, the recently renovated Cabin by the River and the 2^nd  floor of Rambo’s Country Store.

The Station will be open during the Harvest Festival on Oct. 14^th  from 12:00 Noon to 4:00 PM, so stop in to see our latest display, “Califon Through the Years”, before it ends. Additional open dates include: October 21^st , November 4^th  and  November 18^th. If you have questions, please call Don at 908-832-2012.

Congratulations to Christian Beard, winner of the Historical Society’s 8^th  Grade Student Achievement Award. Christian was selected for his historical essay written on the Swamp House (circa 1824), which was once used as a stagecoach stop!
