For one month the town will celebrate Norwich's 350Th anniversary. The festivities are set to start on Saturday, June 6 at 10am at Mohegan Tribe's burial grounds. There they will re-enact the deed-signing between the tribe members and the city.
Along with the anniversary is the Riverfest celebration at Harbor Park. In the Harbor on Saturday there will be music, food, boat races, and more. "We have bands coming in and playing throughout the afternoon, Miss Connecticut will make an appearance, an entire Children's Village arts and crafts, a preview of our fall auto show," he [Brian Kobylarz] said. "There's plenty for everybody to do, all free and open to the public."
The celebration has been planned for over a year. Along with the re-enactment on June 6, there will be cemetery tours on June 13, Harbor day June 26, and a parade on July 5.
