Old Greenwich Merchants Eager to Light up Sound Beach Ave

The Old Greenwich Merchants group is organizing lights for the village of Old Greenwich this holiday season and into 2025. Consider joining the merchants in the neighborhood to brighten up the holidays so the village of Old Greenwich can shine with lights just like on Greenwich Avenue and in Cos Cob.

Efforts are underway to light up Sound Beach Ave from November to February. Costs are being kept low and merchants are supplying the electricity, but community support will be critical.

“This was a couple of years in the making, and truly a community effort,” said OG Merchants member Rich Fulton. “Funding was provided by the merchants and residents, and we are acknowledging all on the OG Merchants website. The town has been great, the building owners, the electrician and the lighting company all have gone above and beyond to make this happen.”

Consider donating to the effort by clicking here and sharing the message with friends and neighbors in Riverside, Old Greenwich and the rest of the town.
