The Suffield Firemen’s Association offered Suffield their Family Day and Fireworks on July 16 at Spaulding School and ended with a great fireworks show. The weather cooperated, the food booths were nicely diverse, the music was enjoyable, and the affair was lots of fun. There were lots of informal tugs-of-war, and Firefighter Tom McCabe says the Suffield Cup awaits a victor next year.
