Wow! October was quite a month in the Town of Suffield! The highlight of the month for me, Parks and Recreation, and I am certain for most of the town, it was 350th Anniversary celebration during Columbus Day weekend.
If you didn’t have a chance to purchase a Suffield or West Suffield 350th anniversary crock earlier this year, you can still buy one at our partner’s website: AllSignsCo.com/stoneware.html. We chose their “oak tree” design (fourth row down) and selected the “Anderson” font that curves just a little bit.
The November meeting of the Suffield Garden Club will be held on November 1 at 7 p.m. at the Kent Memorial Library.
On September 18, using brushes and rollers, volunteers at Hilltop Farm paint a long fence by the south entrance road.
If you are looking for holiday gifts that are uniquely Suffield, check out the 350th Anniversary booth at this year’s Christmas Bazaar.
Take 50% off holiday clothes and decor at the Second Chance Shop when you shop our extended 9 a.m. to 3 p.m. hours during Christmas in Suffield on Saturday, November 6.
Saturday October 16 at 11 a.m.- 3 p.m. Michelle Girard, owner of the Broadleaf Gift Shop, had a small reception to welcome people to the new store, located at 1150 South Street (Route 75).
The fireworks that followed the grand anniversary parade, launched from the playing field in Bruce Park, seemed more densely packed than usual.
