Portland CT Market Report for February 2011

CHRISTMAS CRAFT AND BAKE SALE

345 MAIN STREET (TRINITY CHURCH)

PORTLAND, CT

It is that time of the year, for crafts and bake sales.  This weekend is no exception for the in Portland, CT.  They are holding the "Craft and Bake Sale", this Saturday, November 15th from 9am TO 2pm.

There will be hand crafted, a tea cup auction (which is always fun), and I'm sure lots of tasty baked cooks.  You can even cut your own Christmas Tree.  I just wonder if it is a little early for that.. maybe you can just tag them for now.  So, if you are in the Portland area tomorrow.. stop by and pick up some goodies.

I love to see people mentioning "Christmas" again.. that is the way I feel it should be.  Everyone should be able to celebrate the way they wish... not the generic "Happy Holidays".

I was going through Portland, CT yesterday afternoon on the way to showing a home, when I went through the center of town to see a banner going across the street.  Guess what time it is?  It is the annual "Portland Brownstone (for the brownstone buildings in town) Festival".  I believe it to be the 4^th annual.  This is when the town celebrates all the people who reside in it and the town itself.  It is being held on the green at Trinity Church, the Riverfront Park and other buildings in town, this Saturday, September 13^th, today!.  There will be a pancake breakfast at the senior center, hayrides, Arts n' Crafts, music, art show and much more.  The best part is that it is FREE.. and for the whole family. 

It is always fun to learn about another town, so if you are in the area, stop by and enjoy.

Do you remember being a child and all the fun you had at summer camp.  Looking forward to seeing the friends you made the previous summer, and meeting up with them again, and thoughts of making new ones.

 

Learning to swim for the first time? Taking archery lessons,  but most importantly, getting away from your parents and just being a kid for a while. Are high priority on a child's mind. 

YMCA Camp Ingersoll in Portland Connecticut has this and more.  For the past 3 summers my sons have gone, and can't wait to go back again this summer.  What is nice for the parents is that they are active all day, and by the time they come home, they eat dinner and fall asleep (with no arguing by 8pm).
