Town Common Project Committee - 2003
The
committee, along with other interested townsfolk and friends, spent another
busy year fundraising. Craft Fairs,
Raffles, Craft Classes, “The Gift Shop” in the Town Offices, the “Country
Cupboard” at the Dunbarton Country Store and a Co-Op Fundraiser with Discovery
Toys increased our bottom line by $4,365.71.
Our balance as of
Because the work of the Dunbarton Center Building Committee will impact the Town Common grounds, and potentially where a bandstand might be located, actual design plans are on hold. The Town Common Committee, however, will continue fundraising efforts. It is highly unlikely too much money will be raised, but in that rare event, it will be kept as a maintenance fund.
We would like to thank everyone who has helped us during the past year. Those who donate raffle items, materials, perform woodworking, carpentry, painting, computer graphics, assemble and make crafts, purchase goods and raffle tickets, run errands and do so many other things. It would be impossible to list everyone; rest assured we appreciate each and every one of you.
Anyone can join our efforts at any time – you are welcome for as much or as little time as you have available. Contact us directly or at towncommonprojec@aol.com.

Town Common Project
To enhance the
appearance and increase the usability of the Town Common grounds to further
enrich Dunbarton’s community atmosphere.
A new bandstand, to replace one previously on the common, is the major
focus with appropriate sitting/viewing areas to
be incorporated. Improvements will be simple, practical,
durable and low-maintenance, preserving green space and aesthetically complementing
the historic nature of the surrounding structures.
