While walking at the former Medfield State Hospital site last night and curious about what was going on at the Bellforge Arts Center stage I happened upon the rehearsal of the Gazebo Players for The Taming of the Shrew, directed by Steve Small, and was handed the attached flyer. Performances are on Saturday and Sunday at 5:00 PM. I did observe that Steve had directed his wife Cynthia Small to have purple hair.

Celebrating 20 Years of the Angel Run! 
In 2006, family and friends of Natasha Domeshek came together to honor her memory through a heartfelt community event — the very first Angel Run. 
What began as a tribute to a beloved third grader has grown into a cherished holiday tradition that brings our community together, continuing the Angel Run’s mission to support families and spread joy across our town.

Head to the Dale Street Gym this Friday, October 24th, at 7pm for a night full of music, dancing and fun! The Swing Dance is back after such a successful event last year and you won’t want to miss what’s in store for this year!
Kathy Brophy is our new instructor who will be teaching East Coast Swing dancing! It’s much easier than Lindy Hop to learn and can be danced to just about any genre – country, jazz, R&B, etc… The award winning High School Jazz Ensemble and Soundwaves will serve as our “house band” and will be performing throughout the night.
Reluctant to dance, but still want to attend? There’s plenty of seating for those who just want to enjoy the music and atmosphere!

Yesterday there was a fairy house event run by Kathleen Derian on the banks of Vine Brook at the Montrose School, that made hundreds of young kids really, really excited and happy. There were even pony rides on colorful unicorns!
The fairy house below was created by Kurt Jackson’s MAP kids, and was the largest and most elaborate of the fairy houses.

Medfield Select Board member
I started this blog to share the interesting and useful information that I saw while doing my job as a Medfield select board member. I thought that my fellow Medfield residents would also find that information interesting and useful as well. This blog is my effort to assist in creating a system to push the information out from the Town House to residents. Let me know if you have any thoughts on how it can be done better.
