The Annual Reading of the Declaration of Independence at the Jaffrey Center Meetinghouse will take place again this year, live, after being presented virtually last year, 2020. The Reading of the Declaration of Independence is a tradition begun in 2001 by Rob Stephenson. The four sponsoring organizations (Jaffrey Center Village Improvement Society [JCVIS], Jaffrey Historical Society [JHS], Jaffrey Historic District Commission [JHDC] and the Meetinghouse Committee) are very pleased to be able to continue the tradition again this year of gathering together to celebrate the founding of our great nation.
