Reminder: Town of Stanford’s 2nd Annual Community-Wide Yard Sale Event this Saturday!
This year’s event – sponsored by the Stanford Business Association in collaboration with the Stanford Grange #808 – will be held on this coming Saturday, July 2nd from 9am – 3pm (rain or shine). There are 2 options available to those who still want to participate. If you want to sell your wares at your own location (or join up with several families), we will be happy to include you on this year’s map of “sales” locations that will be handed out to visitors. If you don’t have your own spot, you have the option to bring your “stuff” to the Grange property (limited space available, first come first serve). In either case, to participate – please contact Katie Fallon @ kathleenef889@gmail.com no later than Wednesday June 29 so that we can make sure your spot is secured and you are listed on the map of locations.

Stanford Recreation Park Inspection Report
The Stanford Recreation Capital Fund Raising Committee paid to have a full inspection done on the Sparc Park playground. I have attached the report and hope many of you will take the time to read it. We need to make a critical decision about trying to repair this beloved-hand-built-by-volunteer structure, or to replace it with a new one.
There are many factors to consider. Many of the recommendations that cite safety hazards come with the solution of replacement and or removal. Upkeep would be continual, and the treated wood that currently is in use does contain arsenic. Currently our playground is not A.D.A. compliant.
We need as much feedback from the community a possible. You can write to me at wburton@townofstanford.org and I will announce shortly if we are to hold a Public Hearing.
Remember to stop by Roosters at 9 a.m. for free coffee and donuts provided by Big Rock!
7:00 p.m. via zoom. Enter through http://townofstanford.org.
The meeting is to approve the Sport Tech bid to redo our tennis courts and resurface the upper basketball court. All of this work will be funded by the independent Recreation Capital Fund Raising Committee and a $125,000 grant obtained through Didi Barrett’s office. No taxpayer dollars are involved.
Join us from 9:00 am – 1:00 pm on Saturday April 30 at the Whitlock Preserve. As we work, we will learn about the importance of proper recreation management, especially around wetlands. We will also learn about the invasive plants that overtake our natives and how that impairs the ecosystems we rely on. There will be activities for all ages, from trail maintenance to invasive weed removal.
