In 1978, thirteen-year-old David Cecchi salvaged a poster promoting a 1919 dance at Feeding Hills town hall from the rubble of a demolished farmhouse near the farm where he grew up, sparking a lifelong interest in local history. In 2024, after more than three decades on its board of directors, Cecchi was elected president of the Agawam Historical Association. He is the author of Agawam and Feeding Hills (2000), Agawam and Feeding Hills Revisited (2005), Riverside Park (2011), and The Big E: Eastern States Exposition (2016) and the creator of The News from Agawam.
