On January 16, 2024, the Town of Stratford was awarded two Byway Enhancement Awards sponsored by the North Country Scenic Byways Council. These awards recognize outstanding community efforts that result in new or improved attractions along the North Country’s 600-mile network of scenic & cultural byways.
The relocation of the Log Drives Historical Marker in from alongside Route 3 to a more accessible site at the Boat Launch in Stratford Village earned the Cohos Historical Society the “Read the Marker Award”. The extensive renovation of the historical Stratford Grange building, which includes an information kiosk open to the public, earned the Stratford Grange the “By the Byway Award”. Both awards included a $1000 check to the respective organizations.
