How big a parade do you want? The October 10, 2020 parade celebrating Suffield’s 350th birthday is just a year away, and now is the perfect time to start thinking about how you want to participate!
Suffield’s annual Holiday Tree Gala is moving to the Phelps-Hatheway House & Barn! The gala will feature artificial trees decorated by people in our town: organizations, schools, clubs, churches, businesses, neighborhoods and individuals.
In the blink of an eye summer is at an end, and so is my first year as Director of the Suffield Parks and Recreation Department. What a fantastic year I have had, filled with meeting wonderful people that live and work in Suffield, and sharing in their passion for the Town!
We’re getting Suffield AMP-ed again—join the adventure! The Aging Master Program® (AMP) is designed to inform, encourage, and support older adults as they take steps to improve their lives and engage with their communities.
It was March 2017 when the Town voted to approve $2.8 M in bonding for the purchase of three new fire trucks, replacing others that had become too old to keep safely in service. Rescue 1 was delivered this year in May.
Sooner than you think – we are all going to be voting again! So, it’s the perfect time to volunteer for a local political organization and really get to know the candidates and issues. In addition to the two local major party committees: the Suffield Democratic Town Committee and the Suffield Republican Town Committee, the Town of Suffield has a large number of boards and commissions. If you have a special issue that is a concern or passion, volunteer for the related group. If no positions are open, check the Observer for their meeting dates and attend some of their meetings.
