The Reflections project, a collaboration between Keene State, Franklin Pierce University, The Historical Society of Cheshire County (Alan Rumrill), Cheshire TV, The Keene Sentinel, and the Keene Public Library (executive producers Nancy Vincent and Sally Miller), has won the Oral History Association’s 2010 Elizabeth B. Mason Small Project Award, given to recognize an outstanding oral history project.
The project team conducted interviews with key people on selected subjects and developed a series of documentaries based on the interviews, which Cheshire TV videotaped. This resulted in five documentaries: The Hurricane of 1938, Rail Travel in the Monadnock Region, Pisgah: A Place Apart, The Cheshire County Complex, and Textile Mills in the Monadnock Region. Each premiered at the Colonial Theater and appeared on Cheshire TV.
