Countdown to Cheverly Day: The neighbors!

We all love spending the day at Town Park -- from CHVProm on Friday night all the way through the fireworks on Saturday night, the area is a flurry of activity. With just 22 days left until the big event, we asked some of the people closest to the action -- Town Park's next-door neighbors -- about their Cheverly Day experience. Thanks to Jim Allegro for sharing his thoughts -- and to all the neighbors of Cheverly Day (and all the other events that take place at Town Park) for being such good sports every year!

What is your favorite thing about Cheverly Day? I love that we have a caring neighborhood Community….not every small town does.  Our community is rich in diversity and there is a genuine pride of place.  It is a hometown.

What's your best/weirdest/most interesting Cheverly Day-related story? I will say that they have begun to blend together a bit since we’ve been Cheverly for almost 20 years now, but I thought the rainstorm two years ago was fun. We had bunch of scrambling fireworks voyeurs descend upon our back yard to escape the downpour that occurred two minutes into the fireworks.  

What has been your favorite Cheverly Day? We love them all, particularly the fireworks. The parade years are always good fun.

Anything else you'd like to say? Thank you to all the Cheverly Day volunteers who make this day a special event for the rest!
