Put on your poolside best and dive into the Fall Splash, an evening of fun with friends to support building an indoor accessible pool in Winchester.

There will be drinks, a silent auction, and hopefully at least a couple guests who decide to go full-flipper-and-snorkel mode. Hope to see you there!

Be inspired by the green thumbs of your neighbors while visiting 8 uniquely blooming backyards scattered throughout town. RAIN OR SHINE!

List of participating locations will be provided to all ticket holders in advance of the tour.

All proceeds support the Town Beautification Fund managed by the Chamber, supporting projects such as the Lights of Love and Hanging Baskets that keep Winchester beautiful year round.

Thank you to our sponsor! Kate Maloney Interior Design

Shop local at this year's Thanksgiving Farmers Market at the Jenks Center, and enjoy live music while you're there! The market will have fresh produce and all types of gifts for the holiday season. This year the market will also host 17 artists who will display and sell their works as part of Winchester's town-wide Open Studios.
WCMS performers at the market will include a brass ensemble and ukulele ensembles.
See you there!
