BOLTON: First Parish of Bolton has an exciting schedule in the coming weeks. First, FPC (673 Main Street) is pleased to announce the Reverend Ginger Bove will be joining them as their new settled minister. Rev. Bove will first step into the pulpit on October 15 and attend a reception immediately following the service. All are welcome to attend and meet Rev. Bove!
Later in the month on October 27 at 7pm, stop by Davis Hall for a concert of jazzy popular tunes from the 1920s and early 1930s. A period-style dance band will present a program of familiar standards - as well as some forgotten gems - by Irving Berlin, Cole Porter, Hoagie Carmichael, and others - all in authentic Jazz-Age arrangements. Admission is free, but donations are welcome.
Mark your calendars! On November 18 from 9am-3pm there will be a Holiday Village Bazaar and Craft Fair at FPC! This renowned event will put you in the holiday spirit like none other! New this year will be six local crafters’ unique and fun offerings to kick off your holiday and gift shopping. Their signature Bake Shop will be available for pre-order (
www.signupgenius.com/go/9040B4BA9AB23A5FE3-first2#/) and feature apple and pumpkin pies, apple dumplings, corn chowder, chili and baked beans! In addition, an assortment of these and other homemade baked treats will be available while supplies last. The Kitchen Nook will have on hand a variety of homemade jams and jellies, sure to remind you of your grandma’s kitchen. The Cookie Jar will showcase a delicious selection of “made with love” cookies.
Now your diet is completely blown, don’t forget to visit the basket raffle, which is larger than ever including such themes as wine, spa, bird-watching, chocolate, cats, dogs and more! Last, but not least, the Bazaar wouldn’t be complete without a spin through Nana’s Attic, the indoor yard sale that always has great treasures, and the Jewelry Box, where you may find a plain or fancy accessory that catches your eye for pennies instead of dollars.
