Senior
Luncheon -
March 22nd. Bolton Senior Center
The Senior Luncheon
is a great event. Close to 100 seniors in town come to the Senior
Center to enjoy the afternoon. Bolton Women's Club members prepare
a fabulous meal with everything from main dishes to homemade pies.

for the event.
Wadsworth
Atheneum Flower Festival
Fine Arts and Flowers: 2005 was the first year the Bolton Women's Club
participated in this unique four day show of art interpretation through
blossoms and greenery. The club receives a photograph of a painting or
sculpture in the museum that we must interpret through a floral arrangement.
We brainstorm ideas, select flora and make a test arrangement before finalizing
our masterpiece. A Saturday morning “field trip” to the show
lets us view the artwork other entrants were assigned and critique their
interpretation. No experience is necessary to join this fun committee,
just a willingness to explore your creative side.

What a great
way to end the year. Bring your spouse/significant other and enjoy

and weather permitting a nice bon fire out back.

event for the whole family. After the town parade, head over to

Flea Market has been donated to the club.This flea market which is held
on the three acre Willington town green on Route 74 has a great mix of
collectibles, crafts, food items, jewelry, and tag saletype items with
nearly half of the forty-eight spaces offering antiques. The flea market
draws a substantial number of people because it is held the same day as
the Brimfield Antique Show, which is not far fromWillington, so many show-goers
stop at the Willington Flea Market on their way to or from Brimfield.

donated by members and friends with all proceeds going to the club
