Preserving the Past


The Deerfield Beach Historical Society was established in 1973 by volunteers dedicated to preserving Deerfield's history for future generations. They collected and preserved vintage photographs and picture postcards, the area's earliest newspapers and magazines, original letters and diaries, and early maps, surveys, and government documents. Today the Society is working hard to preserve three of Deerfield's historic sites: Old Deerfield School (circa 1920), Historic Butler House (circa 1923), and the Kester Cottage (circa 1930).

 

 

Telling the Story

Educational programs and tours of the Deerfield Beach Historical Society's three historic sites are available for schools and youth and community organizations. Additionally, the Society hosts an annual lecture series and many special events, including the annual Harvest Supper, Santa Breakfast, and Old Fashioned Ice Cream Social.

Join us Saturday, April 19, 2008 from 11:00 AM until 3:00 PM under the Banyan Tree at the historic Butler House for our first Pet Adoption Fair!


We are partnering with  The Florida Humane Society to help find homes for our furry friends.  BSO will give a K-9 Demonstration at noon.  Deerfield Beach Middle School will hold a bake sale and we will have vendors from pet sitters to organic foods for your pets.  Bring your pet (leashed please) and have fun with our pet contests, pet photos and enjoy a hot dog and drink - all to benefit The Florida Humane Society.
