Yes we got snow for our party but we took our Halloween party to the homes at Quinnipiac Terrace. I wanted to let all those who donated pumpkins, candy, muffins, apples and cider form the Uconn extension center, 40 loves of bread from Chibasa's bakery that 4 boys from the homework program. Lee, Joan, Sally, George & Mary Ann went door to door and gave treats to our neighbors and friends. It was a great succeess and  there were many happy kids and grateful parents who thanked CSNA for…

Due to the weight of the snow and the fact that the leaves are still on the trees has caused many limbs to come down, should anyone experience any problems, please call 203-946-6316 for the time being as the police non-emergency number is forwarding all calls.

I hope that I will be excused of abusing the website to ask for help, animal lovers will understand.

So... this is just to inform that your Webmaster as of October 1st finally has immigrated to CSNA country...  I often tell people that Fair Haven is like Manhattan... just think that Mill River = Hudson River ,  Quinnipiac River = East River, Ferry Street = Broadway ,  Grand Avenue = 34th street.   Using that New York City reference I have moved North from the Bottling Works Condominium in "Wall Street" area to the  Upper East Side...   



I don't know yet how long I will be residing…

Hi Folks,

Somebody has been vandalizing the new play area at Dover Beach park. Over the past 4 monts, they have knocked down 3 fence panels from around the play area. Each time I called the city, but all they did was haul away the panels, they never replaced them. The vandals also beat up the trash can and removed its wheels so it won't stand up anymore and trash goes everywhere; I called about this as well but to no avail.  I just posted a report to Seeclickfix about this problem.…
