The Comprehensive Review Plan Committee is looking for photographs of all aspects of Stanfordville to use in their final presentation binder. Please send photographs, with your name and place identification to Nina Peek at npeek@akrf.com
Thank you in advance for participating in this project!
With this year’s COVID restrictions and the canceling of the holiday lights parade, the Stanford Events Committee, along with the Lions Club, have put together a gift card drive for families in need this holiday season. The Lions Club has already committed $400, and the Events Committee has matched that, and now we’re reaching out to see if we can raise that amount to at least $2020.
This year we are looking to collect gift cards instead of gifts, which will be distributed to families in need by Elizabeth Murray, the Seymour Smith and Cold Spring School psychologist.
There are a few ways we can easily participate:
Please feel free to forward this email and flyer along to your members, and let us know if you have any questions.
Let’s spread some holiday cheer this year!
Thanks so much in advance,
The Stanford Events Committee
Dear Neighbors
The holidays are coming and COVID has limited the ways we can interact. As the days get shorter we all feel the need for light, and color and joy.
We on the Stanford Events Committee are proposing that we each take it upon ourselves to shine a little light on the situation, by over-decorating for the holidays. Maybe if we each go as far as we can towards sharing some festive spirit in the form of lights and decorations and holiday fun in our yards, on our houses, and wherever we have outdoor space, we can share some Holiday spirit with our neighbors.
If we all go all out this year, the parade will make itself as we drive around Stanfordville to share the Holiday spirit.
We encourage you to get out those old boxes of Holiday lights, and if you have more than you need, share them with neighbors and friends. If you don’t have lights you can invent your own decorations, let your kids loose, they will find a way. If you email the committee through me, (claire.copley@gmail.com) we will try to find a way to offer assistance with decorations.
We want everyone in Stanfordville to know we are a community, and we wish the best holiday possible to all of our friends and neighbors in town. We don’t an up-to-date email list, so please forward this to any and all residents you think might be interested.
Let’s all join together to brighten out spirits!
The Stanford Events Committee,
