Take In The Sights Of Sandy Hook

To the Editor:

The second annual Passport to Sandy Hook will be held this Saturday, October 6, from 11 am to 4 pm.   Years of effort and commitment on the part of local businesses, residents, and the town government has helped transform this village into an attractive and diverse town center of interesting shops, great restaurants, good businesses, and lovely mixed use buildings with storefronts and apartments. Its beauty is enhanced by the bubbling Pootatuck River and attractive streetscaping. The area is welcoming for walkers and even has two pocket parks available for those who want to relax and take in the sights.

Come join in the celebration on October 6. Your visit to Sandy Hook village promises to be fun, interesting, and, above all, demonstrates support and encouragement for our local businesses.
