150 Years of History


 

Suggestions are welcome to help brainstorm the 150 ways to celebrate Belmont in 2019. Belmont was once part of Gilmanton, and then divided and known as Upper Gilmanton. The celebration will acknowledge the people, groups and moments that have helped form, inspire, and enrich the town's history and community past, present and future. 

Planning committee positions are available, and volunteers are needed for a variety of events. Please contact Gretta Olson-Wilder, Town of Belmont Special Events Coordinator, at 603-998-3525 or events@belmontnh.org to learn how to get involved.

The Town of Belmont is celebrating its 150th anniversary in 2019. We painted special rocks to commemorate the occasion and distributed them throughout the community. If you find one, take a picture of the rock and tell us where you found it by sharing it on the Belmont NH Selectmen Facebook page. Help us spread the word of our 150th by relocating the rock to a new place for someone else to find.
