The Village of South Elgin is compiling a history of its recent past. Do you have a fun, interesting or touching anecdote about life in the Village – whether it’s from the 1950s, the 1990s or anytime in between? Share your tale live during South Elgin Stories, or submit a written version to the library at seemail@gailborden.info. The Village of South Elgin will compile these oral histories to give future generations a glimpse of the South Elgin we know or remember. And if you’re not ready to share a story, you are still welcome. We love listeners too!

September - We will be talking about Back to School memories!

October - We will be sharing fall traditions and Halloween. Feel free to bring photos of parties and costumes.

November - We will be discussing family holiday traditions and bring an old family favorite recipe or turkey story!
