East Haven Fall Festival

East Haven Fall Festival - September 8, 9,10, 2023

Dear East Haven Community,

Welcome to the 2023 East Haven Fall Festival! This annual event celebrates the vibrant spirit and personal bonds that make our town special.

We've been working hard to enhance the beauty of East Haven, and I'm proud to say that we've made significant progress. The town green has been transformed into an attractive and relaxing destination for residents to enjoy for decades to come.

We've also expanded our parks and playgrounds to provide more recreational opportunities for people of all ages and abilities. These spaces create safe and enjoyable environments for families to spend quality time together, fostering unity within our community.

Our commitment to promoting local businesses and expanding our Farmers’ Market has been a great success. We've showcased the incredible produce and products of our region, supporting our local economy and encouraging sustainable and healthy living.

East Haven has seen a record number of new businesses - driving economic growth and creating job opportunities for our residents. This is a testament to the collaborative efforts of our administration and the entrepreneurial spirit of our community.

We've also made significant investments in our schools to provide a nurturing environment for East Haven families. By properly funding education, enhancing recreational facilities, and fostering a strong sense of community, we've become an attractive choice for families looking for a new home.

Your active participation and invaluable feedback during events like the East Haven Fall Festival are greatly appreciated. Your voices and opinions drive our progress, and I value your insights as we shape the future of our town.

Thank you for being part of this festival. Enjoy the 2023 East Haven Fall Festival!

Warm regards,

Mayor Joseph A. Carfora
