GUILFORD-Broad Brook Grange's annual Sugar on Snow Supper will be held Saturday, Feb. 22, at the Broad Brook Community Center in Guilford. The event is a week earlier than usual because Town Meeting has moved to Saturday, March 1.
The meal includes ham, baked beans, deviled eggs, mashed potatoes, coleslaw, rolls, doughnuts, and Guilford maple sugar on Guilford snow (which is plentiful this year), and pickles.
There will be three seatings, starting earlier than in previous years, to give diners more time at each seating: 4:30, 5:45, and 7 p.m. At each seating, a half-gallon of Guilford maple syrup will be raffled.
This longtime annual fundraiser helps support the many activities of the Grange, which sponsors Pre-Town Meeting, a community Thanksgiving dinner, this supper, and brunches, as well as Guilford Center Stage productions. The Grange organization also provides Christmas stockings for seniors and a college scholarship.
