NEW BERLIN – On November 20, the Chenango County Historical Society will open a new exhibit featuring the history of Preferred Mutual Insurance Company. The exhibit will be a permanent display at the museum located on 45 Rexford Street in Norwich.

Founded in 1896, Preferred Mutual Insurance Company has been part of the Chenango County community for nearly 120 years. The Company has maintained many of its original artifacts despite a historic fire, multiple renovations, and years of use. And for the first time in the Company's history, these items will be available for public viewing.
