SUMMARY:The Historic Armories of Rhode Island
DESCRIPTION:Roberta Mudge Humble\nPresident\, Westerly Armory Restoration\, Inc. \nThe oldest of the standing armories in Rhode Island was built in 1835 and the newest in 1928.

Besides their military missions to safely store arms and to provide homes for military units\, Rhode Island’s armories have a close attachment to the state’s citizenry. From dances and meetings to circuses with Tom Thumb\, voting\, polio clinics\, car shows\, State Inauguration Balls – and home to the fast break in basketball\, the armories have welcomed the people of Rhode Island. This presentation includes a PowerPoint presentation of all 18 of Rhode Island’s historic armories. \nAt the Cariage House
