New Year’s Day Brings Hilltown Families and Friends Together

January 2, 2007 at 12:00 pm (Cummington Family Center, Family Socials, Hilltown Families, West Chesterfield)

Hilltown families from Ashfield, Chesterfield, Cummington, Plainfield and Windsor dressed-up in costumes and got silly while gathering in West Chesterfield, MA, for a New Year’s Day Family Pancake Breakfast.

Originally connecting through the Cummington Family Center (CFC) as newborns and toddlers, these families have formed friendships over the past few years and joined together on New Year’s Day for what has become an annual event

What a way to start the New Year. I’m so grateful for our community and for a box of dress-up clothes!
