Alan and I have raised our daughters, Allison and Nicole in Silvermine! We love hosting parties, walking, biking and hiking, exploring CT and the surrounding area! We have a wonderful Golden Retriever named Bowie who loves to look over the Borglum bridge during our walks. We have lived here longer than anywhere else! We grew up on opposite sides of the country, in California (Kim) and Massachusetts (Alan). We met in Germany at an Air Force Officers club and have lived in PA, GA, and Tokyo before moving here! So Silvermine is more home than anywhere else!
How long have you lived in Silvermine?
Almost 21 years! We moved here in August 2004.

- Pancake Breakfast with the Easter Bunny
- Fall/Spring Socials

The Santa event is such a big part of our kids’ memories of growing up here! Allison has called it magical!

I love the pancake breakfast, the shredding day, the Trunk -o- Treat, the Tag Sale and so many others!
