On June 18 from 11 am – 1 pm the Derby Public Library once again celebrates the birthday of Holton Harcourt Wood (which was June 19), the young boy in whose memory the Library was built. To commemorate his birthday, we invite the public to visit and learn more about the history of the Library and the Wood Family and enjoy a decorative cupcake as we honor this special young boy. The Library will also be decorated with flowers in compliance with Colonel H. Holton Wood’s request, which he made at the dedication of the Library to his son in 1902. This time-honored tradition has become well known over the years, not only throughout the valley, but also well beyond.
