But why is it not called Old Home Days?

The old timers (respectfully presented) get very upset when you use the term, Old Home Days. The fear is that if you use this term rather than the approved term Old Home Day, it will break a sacred link. We are one of just a handful of towns that have held Old Home Day for 106 years with out fail. If one year we were to call it Old Home Day’s the ghost of Gov. Rollins would certainly strip the honor of our never ending celebration! Even though in 1899 he actually declared the nation’s first statewide “Old Home Week” to be held annually the third week in August. (source State of New Hampshire, New Hampshire State Council on the Arts)

If you do make an error, when you type www.oldhomeday.com www.oldhomedays.com or www.oldhomeday.org no need to worry! They all take you to the same place, Londonderry, New Hampshire – Old Home Day.

By the way NEVER call it OLDE HOME DAYS! It will give away the fact that you are from out of state!
