Strolling through Main Street during the Ridgefield Spring Stroll
Every year residents and visitors alike look forward to the Spring Stroll festivities organized by Downtown Ridgefield. This year was no exception! It was a glorious spring day and many people flocked to Main Street to enjoy the celebrations.
This year’s Stroll was particularly festive, with special events to commemorate Compassionate Ridgefield. Sidewalks around town were adorned with chalk art expressing the values and mission of this new organization, culminating in the signing of the “Charter for Compassion”. It was a feel good day that makes us truly appreciate our wonderful town.
