Almost every year we highlight the Fall Foliage opportunities in the Central Mass area around this time.

One of the tools of the Fall Foliage aficionado has to be the tool maintained by the […]
Worcester 2012 Halloween Events Update

Last week we gave you a heads up on the PumpkinFest and AppleFest events that took place the past weekend.

Each year we look to update our list of Halloween events and […]
Columbus Day Weekend 2012 in Central Mass

Columbus Day weekend is here! Kind of (I think Friday counts). The weather has been dreary lately but there are Central Mass forecasts for today and Monday are quite nice. Saturday and Sunday also look like it only just might be an occasional shower in the afternoon. This should not keep anyone from making the […]
Celebrate Independence Day in Central Mass – 2012

Celebrating Independence Day in the Central Mass and Worcester areas don’t just include July 4th this year. The Worcester Tornadoes are holding a series of Fireworks Fridays in July and August.

Central Mass Video

Worcester Ecotarium Partipating in Free Museum Day

This summer our family was able to visit Worcester’s Ecotarium for the first time. We didn’t quite know what to expect since it is a bit of a mix between park and science museum. Our kids got a big kick out of the bubble display and the displays regarding the animals and their environments. It […]

Though the temperature is getting a bit brisker it isn’t too late to buy fresh fruit and vegetables at you local Worcester Farmers Market.

Worcester Sharks Bring Hockey Action to Marlboro

The New England Sports Center in Marlboro is hosting the first 2010 preseason game for the Worcester Sharks. They will be playing no other than the Providence Bruins at 7pm tonight. It is weird to think of hockey on a day where it is in the mid-70s but this is a great opportunity to see […]
Central Mass Fall Foliage Season 2010

Tomorrow is the first day of fall/autumn and is the kick off of our fall foliage season. As residents of New England we may sometimes take for granted the beauty of the fall foliage season. The best fall foliage is something many people actually plan for. Vacations and day trips are planned during the Autumn […]

This past Monday the official ground breaking event took place to start the redevelopment of the old City Square Mall.
