Happy 175th Chelsea!



I'm sure you've heard by now that Chelsea is celebrating 175 years this weekend. Founded in 1834, we've come a long way, but we still embrace our roots. There are many, many festivities going on in town, including a beer tent (aka "social" tent), kids activities, fireworks, old fashioned demonstrations, a parade... and MORE. (wow!)

It is also the kick off for Sounds & Sights on Thursday Nights, SRSLY Cinema (tonight's movie is The Dark Night at 9pm), our fantastic new Chelsea Sculpture Walk.... whew!

A few highlights for the weekend celebration:
  • Parade
  • Historic walking tours
  • Fireworks
  • Kids games, contests, clown, etc
  • Stuff at the fairgrounds
  • Social tent (Most of us would call it a beer tent.... lol)
  • Chicken broil
  • Barn dance
  • .... and more!!

Happy 175th birthday to our hometown!
