Now, before you think “Hey, wait! It’s only the end of July!”, I want to assure you that we aren’t rushing summer. There is still plenty of time to get in those beach trips and soak up some of the sun that we won’t see for a while once the colder months hit. Enjoy it!
At the same time, though, it’s never too early to think about fun, fall community events in Stamford, the area we call home. We live in such a fast-paced, plugged-in world that sometimes it can be hugely valuable to unplug, gather up the family, dog, friends, or any combination of those, and visit with some great local people.
What Stamford Events should I know About?
Glad you asked! Here are a few that we wanted to highlight. Check out the links for more detailed time/place information.
