some Of these homes had been really well keeped up and painted. You see how the rich owner of the threadmill or rich business people lived in those days. I only walked on the outside

A friend and I were discussing great places we are missing during this pandemic isolation and The Hoot came to mind. As my friend is not originally from the area, I described my earliest memories of the store on Railroad Street (if I recall correctly) and then Main Street in Willimantic. It occurred to me how lucky I am to have such a unique and tasteful shop nearby. It is always the place I go to find gifts or simply to lift my spirits by browsing. From local artisans to far away treasures, The Hoot has something for everyone. Just wanted to give a shout out and say thank you for your many years in our community and the beauty you have brought into many lives including mine!

Lauter Park is a multi use public park with facilities for nearly everyone. During the summer the public beach has lifeguards. The play area, including a water park (enclosed) is suitable for all ages. There is flat open space for a variety of lawn games, wooded areas and benches for picnics or just watching the water, a skate board and BMX park and a playing field which I think was recently converted to soccer. Three are several basket ball courts, fishing in the river upstream from the swiimming area. The Natchaug river which runs through and is the major clean water source for the region (about 2 miles upstream) is clear flowing and cool on the warmest of days. The park, a gift from the Philip Lauter Foundation, gifted the park in the 1950's. It is open year round and also contains two community gardens.
