This year, Southborough’s Heritage Day was dreary, chilly, and wet. But attendees and participants still managed to have some fun.

Here are photo highlights from the day.

I was busy at the Friends of the Southborough Library’s book and bake sale. Fortunately, family members captured photos of the parade for me:

The Southborough Fire Department posted great photos from the Southborough Fire Association’s Open House:

In Heritage Park at noon, the Town held a bench dedication ceremony in honor of Kim Tolander. Below are photos contributed by Ryan Donovan of the event where Southborough School Committee Vice Chair Roger Challen spoke about the late committee member:

The field was bustling with activity in the morning, despite the weather. But I didn’t get over until the afternoon when it was much quieter. Below are my photo highlights (and one contribution):
