I’m thrilled that so many of our members and guests enjoyed Monsters in the Gardens last Saturday evening – – it was our biggest crowd to date and we were fortunate to have perfect weather to go with great presentations, costumed volunteers, trick-or-treating, and a whole lot of family fun!

But the fun’s not over! – – not by a longshot! Wellfield’s Fabulous Fall is still in full swing, with a special concert THIS Thursday evening at 6 pm, featuring the Fischoff National Chamber Music Competition’s 2017 Wind Division Gold Medalists, the Fuego Quartet. This collaboration between Wellfield and the Fischoff National Chamber Music Association brings beautiful music to a beautiful venue. $10 tickets include entry to Wellfield, the Concert, and complimentary refreshments including wine, beer, water and light snacks. DON’T be fooled by the rain these past couple days, the weather forecast for Thursday is going to be GORGEOUS!  It’s going to be a crisp fall day with highs in the 50’s and SUNshine.
