EASTON â The Easton Craftsmen Guild will introduce a new show and sale this autumn, with all proceeds to benefit The Connecticut Burn Camp for Children.

The First Annual Fine Artist & Demonstrating Craftsmen Show will be presented at Firemanâs Field on Sunday, September 26, from 10 am to 5 pm.

Visitors will see over 50 juried exhibitors, with over 20 live demonstrations of craftsmen showing their fine skills including weaving, pottery making, silversmithing, furniture making, sewing, broom making, wood carving, rug making and more.

The show will also include refreshments provided by The Pantry of Fairfield and live music throughout the day. There will also be an artisan raffle and for children, a puppet parade at noon is being planned.

Show coordinator Lee Skalkos said recently that the showâs goal is to make at least $2,000 for the burn camp.

Firemanâs Field is at the corner of Route 59 and Center Road. For additional information call 203-445-1953 or visit www.EastonCraftsGuild.com.

Some facts to consider. A total of 40,00 trips a day take place on Rt 25, The Castle Hill project will add less than 1%. Cluster homes are already an approved concept for the Borough, because it preserves open land and builds homes with sewer and public water. I'm Suggesting the Zoning Board should approve this because its a proposal that meets conservation goals and "checks" all the boxes.

A Development Must Be A Good Fit

Head on a swivel at all times - especially in grocery parking lots! Keep an eye out for folks turning at the flagpole - it befuddles them at times.

How do you propose tapping the brakes, Dave? 8-30g already trumps any local regulations- you don't have a brake pedal to push. Brookfield, Trumbull and now Ridgefield have a clear case for a moratorium based on the development (thanks to 8-30g) that has already occurred. I don't see a clear case for Newtown to request a moratorium... yet.

Backs Moratorium On Dense Development Applications

Nobody is suggesting shutting the doors on new neighbors. What neighboring towns are doing, and what we should be doing too, is to tap the brakes on all of the multi-family residential development proposals so that we can spend 6 months updating our regulations such that if you want to build dense residential housing here, XX percent of it needs to be affordable (we will never make any headway on increasing our percentage of affordable housing otherwise, short of 8-30g), and the rest needs to be done in as low an impact manner as possible. Low impact on traffic, health & safety, the environment and on the cost of town services.

Hey, there you go! Richard solved it. Thanks, that seems so easy- we'll just get rid of the 2nd amendment and the Supreme Court. Seriously, the 2nd amendment doesn't create violent criminals or mental illness. The Supreme Court doesn't create violent criminals or mental illness. The problem is not the tools, but the criminals & the mental illness. The state of Connecticut seems to be focused on the tools, like Richard, while ignoring the users of those tools.
