Mission
The mission of the Scarborough Historical Society is to inform the community of its history by collecting, preserving, and exhibiting materials associated with its past.
Program accomplishments
- The Scarborough Historical Society was founded in 1961 to collect, preserve and exhibit items of historical significance to Scarborough and make them available to the public. Many of the town's historic artifacts were being sold or removed, often times out of state, and the Society was determined to reverse this trend.Expenses $50,706 · revenue $12,693
