Committees: GAR Hall Trustees
2010 Annual Report Civil War Veterans organized the Grand Army of the Republic Hall on August 5, 1869. The Hall was completed in 1888 where it was used by the G.A.R. veterans until 1944 when the Town accepted it at the Annual Town Meeting. Past uses of the Hall were by the Veterans of Foreign Wars and the American Legion. Today uses include the American Legion Post 120, Veterans of Foreign Wars Post 6053, Hingham Veterans' Council, G.A.R. Hall Trustees, Bare Cove Sail and Power Boat Squadron and the Hingham Militia. Boy Scout meetings and Boy Scout Eagle Court of Honor events have also been held in this venue. In support of a Social Studies enrichment activity, the G.A.R. Hall hosted 216 students from Hingham High School's 10th Grade. They attended a presentation given by two Veterans of the Korean and Vietnam Wars. The topic was about the Cold War Era with a question and answer session. Memorabilia was also on display for students to view.
