We've eaten the turkey and cranberries... Now it's time to get ready for Santa!!

For the last 30+ years the Guilford Civic Women have been sponsoring a mailbox to collect our children's letters to Santa! Our members collect the letters and make sure every one gets to the Big Man at the North Pole!

We will be putting our RED Mailbox outside of Page Hardware the night of the tree lighting. Please make sure your letters have a return address (No self addressed envelope needed!!!). The Guilford Civic Women will make sure that Santa sees every letter and every child gets a response!

If you'd like more information about Guilford Civic Women please email [email protected].

We want to thank Christ Episcopal church for allowing us to use their beautiful space to peel our apples. We are very grateful!! We also want to thank Park and Rec, GY&FS, and DAY for allowing us to sell our Crisps at their event!

Looks like fun! Anyone interested?

We had a lot of interest in the Wine Cork Wreath Making class to be held at the market on Sept 8th, but the cost (a $50 donation to Parmelee Farm Fund) held back some from participation. This is such a beautiful and easy to make creation, we don't want that to happen. SO... Linda has very generously reduced the cost to $35. She has already done the tedious work in prepped all the corks, and all supplies are gathered and ready to go. All you'll need to do is show up, and you get to take your creation home. Class will take approximately 45 minutes, starting at Noon in the pond room of the pavilion - Anyone still considering joining it, please e-mail [email protected], send fb message, or leave a comment here. To the folks who've already paid, you will be reimbursed the extra $15. This will be a small class - 12 maximum, so sign up soon if interested.

With a new round of scholarship applicants in hand I thought I'd share and email we recently received from a past recipient. We truly do good things!!

In 2015 I received a Guilford Civic Women scholarship for college, and I wanted to thank you again. Without the scholarship it would have been much more difficult to afford school.

With the scholarship I was able to pay for all of my textbooks for the first two years of school. As an update, I'm now a junior at Eastern Connecticut State University, studying Business Information Systems, and last semester I completed an internship at Generations Family Health Center in Willimantic, CT. I am hoping to complete another internship this summer, and am planning to graduate in May of 2019.
