Town Crèche

By Mrs. Shirley Pierce

For the past 5 years, a beautiful Christmas crèche has been displayed on the grounds of the Town Hall. This scene was the gift of Town businessmen through the South Windsor Chamber of Commerce. Each year, our Town holiday season begins with the lighting of the crèche and an accompanying Christmas tree. This festive night is highlighted by the signing and accompaniment of our Town musicians.

More recently, the crèche has been moved to the front lawn of the Wapping Community Church to conform to Federally mandated guidelines.
