'Cozy Sundays' Survey Results and Schedule

Mary Ann Lawlor reports:

Although all eleven of the suggested topics received substantial member support, the top seven picks will be put on our schedule of Cozy Sundays programs.  Cozy Sundays are informal Sunday afternoon events to be held at the Stamford Historical Society featuring a “Show and Tell” by one of our docents about some of their favorite things in the Society’s own special collections of historic treasures.  Light refreshments will be served.  Further details to be announced.
