    Awesome coverage! This is exactly why I love lining in Wallingford. Small town lifestyle with big city amenities.
    Thanks so much!

    Great pix! If we want more festival, we need to get in there and volunteer. The Wallingford Community Senior Center, which offers many classes, events of interest to all ages, has been taking a key role in this event. Funding cuts reduced capacity, but there are lots of us out here!
