New Milford Planning Big Anniversary Bash Members of the New Milford Bicentennial Committee met to plan for next summer’s big anniversary celebration. The Borough and Township of New Milford will be joining together to celebrate their birthdays next year on August 7, 8 and 9, 2009. The three-day party will honor the borough’s 150th and the township’s 200th anniversaries.
Pictured (l-r) are members of the New Milford Bicentennial Committee: standing – Joyce Cobb, Lorraine James, Carol Smith, Al Aronowitz; seated – Linda Baroni, Ken Bondurant. Plans are underway for a parade, dances, entertainment, crafts and lots and lots of food. The committee is also compiling a history of the communities to supplement the Blue Book that was prepared for the last centennial event 50 years ago. “We are looking for people who want to tell us their stories, and for volunteers to help record them,” says Linda Baroni, who is chairing that project. “We want to involve as many residents and local groups as we can,” says committee chairman Ken Bondurant, “and there is still a lot to do.” He urged anyone interested in volunteering to contact him at 465-7527, Linda Baroni at 465-2712, or send an e-mail to newmilfordhistorical@yahoo.com.
On December 6 and 7, the Oldest House in Laceyville will carry on its 31-year holiday tradition – a Christmas Tea with all the familiar trimmings. The festive event will take place at the Oldest House between 1 and 4 p.m. both days, giving visitors to this 1781 structure a chance to marvel in the beauty of the Christmas season. Each of the three large rooms on the first floor will house beautiful, fresh Christmas trees decorated with care by local volunteers. Guests will also enjoy a working miniature train set-up and the beautiful collections of children’s tea sets and antique toys on display. A variety of refreshments will be served, including homemade cookies and candy, punch, mulled cider, and – of course – tea! There is no admission charge for the Christmas Tea, however, a free will offering will gratefully be accepted. All proceeds benefit the Oldest House Historical Society. For more information, call (570) 869-2706.
Jamaican Christmas At Clifford UMC The children and youth of Clifford and Lenoxville United Methodist Churches have been working hard in preparing for their upcoming Christmas program entitled, "An Island Christmas." This year’s musical, created by Wayne and Shelby Haun with Joel Lindsey and arranged by Jukka Palonen, is based in Jamaica where children look to welcome a new missionary family to their town and celebrate the Jamaican Christmas festival of Jonkanoo. About 15 young people from the community are participating. Celebrate Christmas Jamaican style, and learn how you can help others during the Christmas season. The program will be Sunday, December 7 at 4:00 p.m. at Clifford United Methodist Church, Main Street Clifford. All are welcome.
