The West Haven Apple Festival, sponsored by the parish of First Church of Christ, Congregational, was a smashing success on the Green last weekend. The first full weekend of fall provided excellent summer-like weather that brought out thousands over the two-day event. There was plenty to do and fun to have. The rides on the midway were a popular attraction for all those under 21 and a few that were over as well.
Festival fun!
