Angel Run chairs

We are in the home stretch in preparing for the MFi Angel Run. With over 1,000 preregistered runners and a sunny day in the forecast we expect a great crowd.

We still need lots of goodies for the post race party. Many can be bought: water, hot cocoa mix, snack bags or home baked. This is Medfield’s finest weekend starting with the Christmas tree lighting, Saturday’s parade and ending with the Angel Run on Sunday. Be an angel and sign up for a small volunteer job!

Many thanks from the Medfield Foundation.

Play next weekend for Medfield by a Medfielder

keith curbow play

Medfield Native Returns with Original Piece of Theater 

Michael Norton, playwright and actor, is a graduate of Medfield High School Class of 2010. Michael is bringing his new play to Medfield this Thanksgiving. His new work is specially written with Medfield in mind and should be a big hit for lifelong Medfieldians young and old.

He says of the new work, “almost forgot the phalanx of fire: A Wine-and-Cheese Experiment in Three Parts is a solo performance that tears apart the text of a classic Russian play, a lecture-gone-wrong, a forgotten essay about Medfield, and a story of mysterious letters in an attempt to define that peculiar sensation we call “home.”

Tickets are online at www.keithcurbow.com/special-programs.html You can receive 30% with the promo code- medfieldians.
