Granby Homes for Senior Citizens (which operates Stony Hill Village) will hold its annual Friends of Stony Hill Village meeting on Thursday, Oct. 3, at 6:30 p.m. in the community room at 259 Salmon Brook Street.
The weather cooperated and over 40 community volunteers gathered for the spring Stony Hill Village Community Serve Day on Saturday, April 18. Even a black bear was curious to see the tractor, wood chipper, 20-foot dumpster and two large trucks for hauling away brush that were instrumental in our accomplishing so much.
The next Stony Hill Community Serve Day will be Saturday, May 18, 9 a.m. to noon. This is a reschedule as the Granby Police Department cautioned that a closure of Salmon Brook Street for another activity would impact volunteers.
Phase One of the Granby Grange Hall renovation project is almost completed thanks to a generous donation from the Pomeroy-Brace Fund at the Hartford Foundation for Public Giving.

On Saturday, Oct. 7, from 9 a.m. to 12 noon, the Stony Hill Village Board of Directors will host a Community Serve Day at the village, to help spruce up the grounds of this 50+ year old affordable housing community and assist residents on various tasks as needed.
