Utica, N.Y. – Winner of the Kraft Hockeyville USA contest in 2018, the spirit and passion for hockey is strong in the village of Clinton. This enthusiasm is rooted in the community’s rich hockey history that began over 100 years ago. Join Historian Dick Williams at the Oneida County History Center for brief overview of the sport’s history in the Clinton area. His PowerPoint will trace the development of hockey as a major part of Clinton between October and April each year over the past century.
Dick Williams has been the Clinton and Kirkland Historian since 2000. He is a former Clinton mayor and was president of the Clinton Historical Society (CHS) from 1999-2004. He is still an active member with the CHS and has written the organization’s newsletter since 2000.
This program takes place in the History Center's main gallery on Saturday, January 4, 2020 starting at 1:00 PM.
