Friends of Historic Grooms Tavern

Happy Holidays to ALL from all of us at Friends of Historic Grooms Tavern. Looking forward to a great 2021!!

Even though there were no activities at the Tavern this year due to the Pandemic; members still managed to make it ready for the Holidays.

Go to the Town's website: https://cliftonpark.org and click on "Around Town", you can see all of the historic homes in the area. There is a nice map showing you where they are located.....Nice weekend drive!!

Trunk or Treat at the Common Join Parks and Recreation Friday evening, October 30th from 4pm to 6pm for a free Trunk or Treat at Clifton Common. Starpoint Church is partnering with the Town of Clifton Park to provide a fun, family, friendly event. There will be pony rides, a photo booth for family pictures, popcorn, decorated cars, and of course candy! Be sure to wear your costumes. Extra safety precautions will be in place to help keep everyone safe.

You really should buy a copy of John Scherer's new book, "More Bits of Clifton Park History"! John does a great job of bringing the old tales to life and he matches the locations to our present day sites so one can identify where the stories occurred. For instance, the present Oaks housing development was once a large farm known as the Kittell farm and Home Depot, Michaels and the Halfmoon Crossings shopping center are all part of the property that was once known as the Adsit potato farm. The book can be purchased at the Clifton Park Town Hall in the Parks and Recreation Department. The cost is $20.
