Description

This image was taken from an old photo of the first trolley in Stafford Springs, Ct. in 1908. On April 20 1908 there was a town wide celebration. The entire main street was decorated in red,white and blue bunting,and many prominent state and county officials were there to join in the festivities. That afternoon two of Conn. major league baseball teams gave an exhibition at the fairgrounds. In the evening a fine dinner was served followed by a band concert,and topped off by a grand display of fireworks.
