Our history is as vibrant and diverse as the fertile soil beneath our feet.
The Hampden County Improvement League was founded on January 25, 1913.
Co-founders Horace Moses, owner of Woronoco Paper Company, and John A. Scheuerle, of Hartford, Vermont, built the league with the assistance of representatives from each town within Hampden County.
Together, they set to work bringing new, innovative programs to the community.
