MILLBROOK — Sponsors and local organizations are gearing up for this year’s Community Day scheduled for Saturday, Sept. 21, with fun activities planned throughout the village.
Things will be hopping along Franklin Avenue from Church Street to the Thorne Building with activities for all ages, so remember to bring the children along.
The Farmers’ and Artisans’ market will be set up on Church Street from 9 a.m. to 1 p.m. And the Millbrook Library will be offering a variety of things to entertain. There will be the Two by Two Zoo for an hour starting at 10 a.m. to be followed by pumpkin painting for an hour. And then, the Bubble Bus will be doing its thing from 1 to 3 p.m., along with cotton candy and face painting.
Bakers with a knack for apple pies can submit entries to an Apple Pie Baking Contest. To enter and learn the rules, email mbapresident@millbrooknewyork.com.
To keep toes tapping along Franklin Avenue, live music will be provided by various ensembles within the Millbrook Arts Group at the Farmers Market and the Thorne Building.
There will be a 50/50 raffle to benefit the Millbrook Business Association and enthusiastic representation by local organizations and businesses.
Community Day organizers and sponsors invite all residents, visitors and neighbors to come out to see what’s happening and to connect with each other, make new friends, and strengthen community bonds.
