Sugar on Snow Supper in Guilford

Broad Brook Grange’s annual Sugar on Snow Supper, always the first Saturday in March, will take place March 2nd at the Broad Brook Community Center in Guilford. The meal features ham, and the following homemade items: baked beans, deviled eggs, mashed potatoes, cole slaw, rolls, donuts, Guilford pickles, and Guilford maple sugar on (we hope!) Guilford snow.

There will be three seatings: at 5:00, 6:00 and 7:00 pm. At each seating, a half-gallon of Guilford maple syrup will be raffled.

This longtime annual fundraiser helps support the many activities of the Grange, which sponsors pre-town meeting, a community Thanksgiving dinner, this supper, and brunches, as well as Guilford Center Stage productions. The Grange organization also provides Christmas stockings for seniors and a college scholarship for younger seniors.

Broad Brook Grange is a Partner of the Community Center, and continues to be based in the now-renovated building, which is at 3940 Guilford Center Road, 4 miles west of Algiers Village.

Tickets for the supper are: $15 for adults; $5 for children ages 5-12, and $2 for kids age 4 and under. Cash, check payable to Broad Brook Grange, and Paypal are made at the door. Reservations for a particular seating are recommended, as the earlier seatings often sell out out in advance. A waiting list will also be kept, and those with reservations who cannot make it are asked to phone their cancellation. There are usually a few unreserved seats left for the 7 pm seating, for those who show up without a reservation.
