At St. Marys September 6 from 10 - 5. Last weekend my office among many hosted the art show/sale of local artists. It was very very well received. Lots of people out last Sat. night to enjoy the town.

On August 16th from 5:30 - 8 p.m. there will be an “artist show” and the businesses in town will each be hosting an artist’s work. Put in on your calendar. This will be a nice casual function with wine and cheese served in my office at 426 Main St. Come by if you can.

Enjoy!

Great turnout today for the sidewalks sales. My office handed out home made goodies and water and there was square dancing on the street with a band and great bargains. Only 90 today!!

Ridgefield is home to many wonderful people and families and recently Chuck Scott caught up with a sister-brother pair of Lemonade Entrepreneurs in the video below - enjoy!

To keep you well informed of the 300th Anniversary celebration and specifically the upcoming events and plans that have been made for this week, here is the schedule.

July 3 – Army band concert in Ballard Park

July 4 – Fireworks at Tiger Hollow. Gates open at 6 p.m.

To celebrate Ridgefield’s 300th birthday, there will be a parde on July 4th at 10 a.m. in addition to the beautiful fireworks display at 8 p.m. at the Ridgefield High School. Summer is super here. The concerts in the park on Main St. on Tuesday evenings have been a huge success. Where else can you feel such a wonderful sense of community? By the way, don’t forget we now have a farmer’s market by Animal Fair on Rt. 35 in the parking lot every Friday from 3 - 6.

Average house price is $966,600 and days on the market is 125. However, sales are down 28% in town which is along with the other towns downcounty so far this year. So unusual we have a market with rates down and house prices at the same time.

Come join us for the annual Main Street Parade celebrating all the greatness of America’s Memorial Day Weekend Traditions ..Parade starts at 1130. If you get into town early enough park behind my office which is next to the Gap for free parking all day.

A reminder the referendum vote is Tuesday, May 13th. Also the Ridgefield book sale at the library will be going on Ma 16-19. There are 25,000 volumes.
