Limited Number of Business, Food Booths Available for Sam Collins Day

Businesses and food vendors looking for some visibility have a limited chance to be part of this year’s Sam Collins Day Festival, the annual celebration of everything local.

“People will know who you are, what you are and where you are,” said event chairperson Mary Tomolonius. “It’s a chance to meet with the public and showcase your skills. On top of that it’s a great day.”

This year marks the 19th annual Sam Collins Day, set for Saturday Sept. 21 from 10 a.m. to 4 pm. (rain date Sept. 22).

The event is a partnership with the Chamber of Commerce, Rotary Club of Avon-Canton, Canton Lions Club and Town of Canton. 

With a main site on Canton Springs Road and additional activities in Collinsville, it’s an annual festival with business and food booths, community organization tents, a Made in Connecticut tent, food, children’s inflatables, live entertainment, historical tours of Collinsville and much more.

“It’s just a wonderful, hometown community event,” Tomolonius said.
