Great News
On June 27, 2024 Kathryn Morse attended our monthly meeting and presented us with a cheque for $5,000 which will be used for a Fairview Historical Society interpretive panel.
It will be a two sided panel which will relate the history of the community of Fairview since it’s early beginnings with the land grant in 1763. The panel will be one of three located at different points along the new revitalization of Dutch Village Road which should be completed in 2025.
On behalf of the Fairview Historical Society we would like to extend our heartfelt thanks to councilor Kathryn Morse for he belief and keen interest in our Society.
Thanks again Kathryn
Don Edwards, President FHS
Fairview Baseball Reunion
On Sunday Oct. 15 the 1970-71 Fairview Phillies, their Phillies (wives) and friends gathered at Freeman’s on Dutch Village Road for a reunion luncheon. Fifty three years ago they were a group of Fairview teenagers excited and eager to play the game of baseball. Fast forward to the year 2023, that same slightly older, little less energetic, grey haired group (of forever kids) embraced and hugged each other like lost family.
What a wonderful afternoon it was watching them renew old friendships. It was especially heartwarming and meaningful to “yours truly”, as these kids (now parents and grandparents) were “My Boys of Summer” such a long time ago!
