Granby nonprofits’ advertising funded by GCF grant
|
Is your nonprofit looking to spread the news about a fundraiser? Or is your group seeking new members or leaders but don’t know how to get the word out?
Last year, Citizens for a Better Granby (publisher of the Drummer) received a generous grant from the Granby Community Fund (GCF) in order to help other Granby nonprofits raise their visibility within the community. The CBG Board uses the grant funds to finance advertising for nonprofit organizations that are based in Granby and operate with a small budget.

History
In The Margins — Women and books and libraries
|
A particular kind of mood is conjured up in November: a book read beside the stove, a novel tucked into a bag, a warm kitchen, a skirt drying beside the radiator, a poem read before bed. A domestic scene, perhaps, but not exclusively. An inner life can extend beyond the household. But many times, that’s where it all begins.

The Friends of Granby Public Libraries are still accepting donations of gently-used baby, children and teen books—published in the last ten years, no rips or stains, books only—through end of day Wednesday, Nov. 4, at Granby Public Library in advance of the Fourth Annual Granby Children’s Book Festival.

SBHS restoring Granby Cemetery gravestones
|
Three years ago, the historic gravestone restoration service Beyond the Gravestone began an important project at the Granby Cemetery: restoring the many tombstones that had cracked, broken or begun to lean with age. Since then, owners Will Cornell and his wife, Lisa, and their crew have made remarkable progress, bringing many of these historic markers back to life.
