A Fall Festival Dedication In Memoriam

The Fall Festival Committee dedicates the 20th Annual East Haven Fall Festival to the memory of AnnLynne Carlson. AnnLynne was a dedicated member of our committee for many years, working tirelessly to make the Festival a source of enjoyment and pride for the entire community. The sentiments expressed in this dedication by her family aptly describe the feelings of the committee members as well. AnnLynne left us much too soon, but we will never forget her.

Mary Cacace, President of the East Haven Chamber of Commerce and Michael Albis, President of East Haven Fall Festival, Inc. have jointly announced that Town Fair Tire and AnnLynne Carlson will be honored at this year’s 20th annual Fall Festival, which takes place September 9, 10 & 11th on the East Haven Town Green. View the full announcement and get information about the Chamber Honorees Breakfast in the Business Showcase page.

Handicapped Parking and Drop–off

A limited number of handicapped parking spaces will be available during the Fall Festival on River Street near the Hemingway Avenue intersection. When all the spaces have been filled, drivers may still drop off handicapped passengers in the same area for easy access to the Green before parking their vehicles elsewhere. For access to the handicapped area, your vehicle’s handicapped parking permit must be displayed to the police officer stationed at the intersection of Hemingway Avenue and River Street.

PROHIITED ITEMS

Per local ordinance and by order of the Chief of Police, the public is advised that the following are prohibited from the Town Green during all hours of the Fall Festival:
1. Dogs or other animals, whether leashed or not, with the exception of trained dogs assisting the handicapped.
2. All bicycles or other two–wheeled vehicles, except those operated by police on duty.
3. Spray string, laser pointers, bang snaps, smoke bombs, stink bombs, or any other article whose purpose is to create an unreasonable offensive or noxious odor, noise or condition.

We thank Festival goers for their cooperation in making the event more enjoyable for all by observing these rules.
