Lillian W. of Shelburne Falls writes: “I discovered Hilltown Families about 3 years ago, shortly after the birth of my first child. I grew up here, and felt like I had a pretty good grasp on community events and going-ons.

Hilltown Families has definitely opened us up to new adventures, even things that have been going on for years that we just hadn’t ever checked out…”
