“All-American Picnic and Time Capsule Opening”: Chelsea District Library (CDL)
All invited to witness the unearthing and opening of a time capsule buried by Chelsea residents in 1976. Local families were invited to add family records, souvenirs, voice recordings, and letters to the capsule, to be distributed to their descendants upon the capsule’s opening 50 years later. Jayme Ayn Bollinger (née Spears), the Chelsea baby born closest to the date of the capsule’s burial, officiates. In 1976, she was named “keeper of the key” and given the honor of presiding over the capsule’s 6:30 p.m. opening today. Beginning at 5 p.m., all are invited to bring a picnic dinner and enjoy free cookies and lemonade. Also, live music and kids crafts. 6:30 p.m., CDL lawn & Reading Garden, 221 S. Main, Chelsea. Free.
