Sesquicentennial Governor’s Ball Northfield’s last big ball was the 2005 Sesquicentennial Governors Ball. Next week will rival it: NAG’s Beaux Arts Ball, part of Northfield Arts Guild’s 50th Anniversary season. I’ll be there with my sweetie, hopefully 1) not stepping on her dancing shoes; and 2) taking better photos than this one.

You can purchase tickets online here.

See the album of 147 Governors Ball photos, the large slideshow, or this small slideshow:

We got this via email yesterday from Doug Peterson, retired Northfield Public Schools guidance counselor.

Doug Peterson Northfield held its Christmas Sharing program this week that involves a large number of  residents. The idea of giving to others in the community started about 40 years ago when Mary Dyer-Bennet and friends collected used toys to be distributed by the Northfield Police Department. This year the expanded project served 363 families with 889 children.
