SAVE THE DATE - September 27th

September is HUNGER AWARENESS MONTH.

How appropriate that Center Congregational Church sponsors its Fall Festival in the month of September! Center Congregational Church's 4th Annual Fall Festival will be held on Saturday, September 27th, on the grounds of Center Congregational Church, 155 Main Street, Torrington, CT. All proceeds of this day will be donated to agencies that help the hungry, the homeless and those in need in our community including: the Torrington Area Council of Churches, Friendly Hands Food Bank, Susan B. Anthony and the McCall Foundation.

Last year $14,000 was given to organizations...let's top that this year!

If you have never been to the Fall Festival (gasp!!!!) here are some things you can expect: the crowd- favorite SILENT AUCTION, a huge tag sale, yummy chicken dinner (take out is available), exquisite handmade jewelery, a bike sale, games and activities for kids, cookies by the pound, and much, much more. Bookmark this page to quickly come back later for updates.

YOU CAN HELP!!! Volunteers are needed for many things between now and the day of the festival...Don't be shy! You can volunteer 10 minutes or 10 hours. (After working with some wonderful people for 10 minutes you'll sign up for more!) Give me a call 860-469-4497 or send an e-mail to pandadeb@optonline.net to find out what you can do to help us make this a success, and check back often for updates.
