DARE race 2022 in the house! A Certified 5K road race to benefit the Town of Easton Drug Abuse Resistance Education (D.A.R.E.) program, which is run and maintained solely on donations. The wonderful students of Easton benefit greatly from sponsorship proceeds raised trough this 5K race. The first mile of the race is gentle rolling hills, that are mostly downhill. You then transition to an upward slope that eventually goes back down at the end of mile 2. Mile 3 brings you to “The Punisher” hill, and then a flat, fast finish.
We will be having a new and improved kids fun run. The run will start 20 minutes prior to the start of the 5K. All kids that complete the mile will get a finisher medal.
Long sleeve technical shirts.

2022-10-02 15:00 - 16:00
Calling all poets and poetry lovers! The Mark Twain Library is hosting a series of poetry seminars for middle schoolers. During these seminars, we will discuss the intersection of poetry and activism, read the works of trailblazing poets, understand helpful tools for writing and reciting poetry, as well as carve out time for students to craft their own poems. No prior experience is required to attend these workshops.
The program will meet on the following days (all Sundays): 10/2, 11/6, 12/4. You only need to register once to be registered for all 3 workshops. Registration is limited to 10 participants. We request that participants plan to attend all 3 workshops. In January, we will host a poetry reading to encourage students in the seminar (as well as anyone else who would like to participate) to share their work with a larger audience.

The Hot To Trot Trio in Concert
2022-10-09 15:00 - 16:30 | Easton Public Library, 691 Morehouse Road, Easton, CT, 06612, United States
The Easton Arts Council presents the return of the popular Hot To Trot Trio on Sunday,
October 9 at 3 pm to the Community Room of the Easton Public Library with a new installment of their “Let’s Do It” series entitled “Let’s Do It, Let’s Survive….A Post-pandemic Potpourri”. During the pandemic, the Trio has been updating its repertoire and dialogue, adding to their usually slightly irreverent view of love through the ages, the story of how we have emerged from the pandemic a little bit frazzled but wiser. The song list is primarily from the Great American Songbook with some Tin Pan Alley and operetta added to spice things up.
The Trio hails from Easton, Joanne Kant, vocalist; Bridgeport, Tom Zimmerman, vocalist; and Naugatuck, Olga Kalinina, pianist. They have been performing together for over 5 years at such venues as Thomaston Opera House, the Bijou Theatre, Richter Center for the Performing Arts, and The Watermark.
Admission is free but donations are welcomed for the Arts Council scholarship program.
