Care of Parks


The parks located in the center of Wilbraham, North Wilbraham, and Glendale have been maintained as in previous years.


In addition, the Triangle located near the underpass in Wilbraham was mowed. This particular spot is in need of top soil and seeding.


On Armistice Day, November 11, the Wilbraham Post presented to the town a flag and pole. Dedicatory exercises were held at Memorial Park in Wilbraham Center. Judge Patrick J. Courtney delivered the address. The American Legion Drum Corps of Indian Orchard furnished the music. Also assisting, were the Boy Scouts and school children of Wilbraham. Rev. Mr. Howard W. Orr gave the invocation.


The committee recommends an appropriation this year of $250.00 in order to fill, top dress, and seed the parks.

Safety Pays Big Dividends


Last year we stated that more attention should be given to the Safety of School Children, so with the co-operation of the voters at last Town Meeting, money was appropriated for the employment of Special Traffic officers for the protec- tion of School Children.


Unexpended Balance

Our Committee believes this was a step in the right direc- tion and we hope for a continuance of this good work as it not only protects the children but helps to ease the minds of the parents as well.


Please obey traffic signs and regulations as we cannot obtain good results without your co-operat on.
