The Darien Foundation is proud to be a lead sponsor of the town’s 200th / Bicentennial Birthday, which will be observed at an all-day event Saturday, 10/23! As a special birthday present to the town, The Darien Foundation awarded a $35.5K grant to the Bicentennial Committee for a historical “Heritage Trail” that will tell the story of Darien via nine insightful markers consisting of vibrant photos and illustrative text at historic points of interest.
The Darien Foundation Board Chairman, Ward Glassmeyer and Board Member and Heritage Trail Committee Member Brooke Gies joined Heritage Trail Project Manager, Shannon Silsby and Bicentennial Committee Chair Al Miller to kick off celebrations!
Come out and celebrate Heritage Day on Saturday and at the unveiling of the Heritage Trail November 5. Please stay tuned as we “Unveil the Trail” and reveal the other historic points of interest!
Hint, hint- this drone shot was taken at one of them!
