August 18th, 1763, New Hampshire Governor Benning Wentworth chartered land in northern Vermont, setting up boundaries and called the new town Fairfax.
On August 18th, 2013, 250 years to the day. the Town of Fairfax will celebrate it's 250th birthday with a party on the front lawn of BFA-Fairfax. In case of rain, the event will be held in the elementary gym.
The event starts at 6pm.
The event starts off with a couple of speeches, then the Fairfax-Fletcher-Band will have a concert as cake and ice cream will be served.
The Fairfax Historical Society will provide the ice cream and drinks. We are asking the public will provide the cakes. We are asking people who are coming to the party to make a cake and decorate it however you want with the theme of Happy Birthday Fairfax.
We ask that you do not go to a supermarket or Costco to get a huge cake, because what ever is left over, you are taking it home. Just make a birthday cake you would make for a family birthday. Pictures will be taken with the cakes and their bakers for historical purposes.
The event is free. You will not have to pay for cake, ice cream, or drinks.
