Suffield 350th Anniversary Committee

Win This Truck! and Other Adventures in Fundraising

|

Suffield’s 350th Anniversary Committee is hard at work raising money to pay for our town’s birthday celebration in 2020. We have been selling tee shirts and ball caps, and we’re hosting a golf outing and a beer tasting, but our biggest fundraiser by far is the truck raffle that will be held at Suffield on the Green at 1 p.m. on Sunday afternoon.
