July 1, 2020 by Admin

OLD LYME — Frank Pappalardo, who serves as Sound View Commission Chairman, told LymeLine in an email yesterday, “The Sound View Commission has canceled their events and activities for this summer, including the concert series.”

He added, “The Sound View Beach Association (SVBA) has cancelled the Independence Day Parade for this year, other events are pending.”

Asked about all the other summer happenings that the SVBA traditionally hosts, SVBA President Gail Fuller responded in an email, “We are still not sure what we’re doing with our other  activities yet.,” noting that she would keep LymeLine posted, “as soon as I know what we’re doing.”
