The Stratfield Village Association (SVA) hosted the third annual Lincoln Parkapalooza. It was a combination of a concert in Lincoln Park featuring 3 bands plus a Porchfest event. The goal was to bring local musicians and neighborhoods together to celebrate and create a sense of community, while raising money for neighborhood improvements and beautification.
What: Lincoln Parkapalooza to benefit the SVA and OUR COMMUNITY

As we did in 2021 and 2022, we will be holding a tribute in recognition of those who lost their lives on 9/11 with the Stratfield Fire Department. In 2021, the SVA donated $2,500 to CT Rides, the largest 9/11 non-profit in CT. We hope to be able to make another donation of equal size.
