Programs and results
What we aim to solve
The Honeoye Falls – Town of Mendon Historical Society is dedicated to the preservation of local history and the education of the community. The Society engages with our community weekly by operating a museum located at One Harry Allen Park, which is open to the public Sunday afternoons from 2 to 4. Both the museum and one-room schoolhouse provide educational programs to first and fourth grade classes from the HF-L School District as well as other local districts. The Society conducts eight educational meetings, held at the Mendon Community Center, each year (open to the public). The Society also sponsors an annual Christmas social at the schoolhouse.
