Celebrating with Old Sturbridge Village

As a resident and an elected official speaking individually, I would like to commend Mr. Jim Donahue and his staff at Old Sturbridge Village for the excellent weekend festivities, which paid great homage to the birth of our nation. The many opportunities provided by OSV for residents and visitors alike to join in celebration were a true testament to OSV’s commitment to our community.

It was nothing short of exciting, witnessing the increased presence of visitors and residents taking advantage of the offerings made available by OSV. For the past two years, people have had great cause to visit Sturbridge during the Fourth of July weekend and clearly, this has been driven by, and through the efforts of OSV and its celebratory partners. To that end, a special thanks as well to this year’s fireworks sponsor, Country Bank. It was an incredible display.

The town of Sturbridge is most fortunate to be the recipients of Mr. Donahue and staff’s dedication to the revitalization of not only OSV, but to this entire community as well. Their efforts are clearly not lost on many of us within the community who are witness to their commitment and to that end, we extend our deepest gratitude.
