Get Downtown Today!

I’ve just returned from a morning out and about in downtown Darien and all I can say is that if it’s at all possible, you must try to get down there today!

There is a contagious yet casual air of hustle and bustle with high schoolers campaigning in the streets for their upcoming Car Washes (the boys’ swim team is also having a DOG wash, stay tuned for more information!), people packing outdoor seating areas in front of Uncle’s, to the side of Panera Bread, and on the patio of Ole Mole; the doors of most stores along the Post Road open to the warm autumn breeze; everyone seems to be in good spirits; it’s a perfect day to enjoy our town.

One of the open doors is at The Darien Toy Box, where children’s songs float through the simple, eco-aware toy shop and kids are invited to play while parents check out all of the fun, educational toys, games and books that have been thoughfully selected by the store’s owner and toy-lover, Bill Jensen.

‘New Neighbors’ Welcomes You to Darien

Posted on: Sunday September 7, 2008
Posted in: About Darien, House & 'Hood, Neighborpreneurs

My latest addition to the Neighborpreneurs category is a group of longtime Darien residents who believe that, when you’re new to town, nothing beats a friendly face and the genuine interest in helping you get settled in that an in-person greeter can provide (and I couldn’t agree more!)

New Neighbors is an independently-run ‘welcome wagon,’ comprised of Darien residents Linda Smith, Marianne Reifenheiser, and Susan Cator, each of whom has lived (and raised their children) in Darien for years.

In addition to bringing a new resident/family a nice, juicy package of helpful information about town and coupons and special offers from local retailers, they bring a wealth of local experience and contacts that they are more than happy to share in order to connect new residents with all of the resources they need to feel truly at home in Darien.  Click To Read More of This Post
