Reflecting on the Holiday House Tour

The Suffield Garden Club had a successful tour of our beloved historic Main Street homes this past holiday season to be sure. The street was bustling with activity and holiday spirit. Thank you to those who shared their homes and to our own Garden Club members for their creativity and hard work. Suffield Hardware, the Police Cadets, the Senior Minibus and the Highway Department all contributed to the success of the event. During this winter season, we’ll begin planning for a series of projects that we have just raised funds for.

Stay Warm This Winter!

Suffield Woman’s Club News

The members of the Suffield Woman’s Club (SWC) voted last year to purchase a new sound system for the Town. This was in response to members attending the Town’s outdoor occasions such as the Memorial Day and Veterans Day events and not being able to enjoy the service due to a poor sound system. This past Veterans Day was the first time the new system was used and it made a world of difference. It is the Club’s hope that many more people will attend these services because now they can hear what is being sung and said. The SWC would like to thank Facilities Manager Chris Matejek and Highway Department Foreman Mark Cervione for their help with this project.

Ongoing Programs

The community brought holiday cheer to 226 Suffield residents. SCA extends sincere thanks to the many individuals, families, organizations, churches, businesses and Town departments that helped to make the 2019 Holiday Basket Program such a great success. Eighty-six Suffield households, comprising 226 men, women and children, had a more enjoyable holiday season because of the generosity of others!

Ice Harvest

Once again, weather permitting, the Suffield Historical Society, Suffield Land Conservancy and Noble & Cooley Museum will host ice cutting on the Mill Pond in Granville, Mass. (Water Street) from noon to 3 p.m. on Saturday, February 1.
