"Summer Nights" Quassy Amusement Park & Waterpark Giveaway!

Great Activities in this Week's Newsletter! Information on Tax Free Week!

August 7, 2014

It’s a good week for a giveaway!  A family four pass of tickets to "Summer Nights" Quassy Amusement Park & Waterpark in Middlebury, CT!  Read article accompanying this newsletter for more details!   Last Sunday we decided to take a small road trip to Lyman Orchards in Middlefield, CT.   This fabulous place has pick your own peaches, blueberries, apples, raspberries and much more.  There’s also a great store where one can purchase fresh produce, deserts, pasta, and gourmet items.  They also have a deli counter where you can order sandwiches and soups and have lunch on one of their outdoor picnic tables facing a pretty pond.  I had read somewhere about their Sunflower Maze and decided a Sunday afternoon would be the perfect time to take a peek at the flowers.  The sunflowers were bright yellow, red, even deep purple and they were just beautiful, some over six feet tall.  There’s a small fee for the Sunflower Maze but well worth the price, definitely something to go see if you’re looking for a fun outdoor activity to do with the family.

The week of August 17th is tax free week.  During this time (August 17-23, 2014) purchased clothing and footwear less than $300 is tax free.    Go ahead and take a peek at this week’s newsletter for fun things do with the kids.   I leave you with #100happydays;#day84 beautiful sunflowers!  See photo accompanying this article. 

Enjoy your week!
