education

Adapted from a Historic Deerfield press release:

There's something about the first signs of autumn that give a sense of "wiping the slate clean".  From the crisp, cool mornings to the first days of school, autumn brings its own sense of renewal as the long, hot days of summer ebb away.  Here at Historic Deerfield this fall a robust schedule of demonstrations, educational programs, and special events await visitors of all ages.

This month, at Historic Deerfield, you have the opportunity to explore open hearth cooking, handle live silkworms while learning how their secretions become beautiful shimmering cloth, attend two free lectures on Utopian Societies in Early New England, and more.

After a successful night of fundraising, but a lean pie throwing time, the Greenfield High School Music Parents Association (GHSMPA) would like the public to know that they will continue accepting donations until Friday, April 10th.  If they get to, or surpass, the $3,000 mark, additional Greenfield High School (GHS) administrators will allow themselves to be hit in the face with whipped cream pies.
