Trinity College founded by Thomas Church Brownell in 1823 is the second oldest college in…read moreConnecticut after Yale University. The college was located on land they had purchased and later sold to the State of CT in 1845, that property is now called Bushnell Park. One of the original college dormitories was located right where the State Capitol Building now stands. Trinity College is a member of The Little Ivy Schools along with Wesylan, Amherst and Williams College in our area. The Trinity campus building architecture is simply beautiful the Main Quard is bounded by the clock tower and Brownell Chapel on the North, the straight run, called the Long Walk made up of dorms and classrooms on the West border of the green this is a grand promenade of the entire lenght of The Main Quard. The Green is distinct as it has no paths through it; the Elm trees on the green are planted in a "T" for Trinity. There is a larger than life bronze statue of Thomas Church Brownell founder of the college and to the rear on either side are two canons from the USS Harford, the flag ship of Rear Admiral David Farragut during the civil war battle of Mobile Bay in New Orleans. There is plenty of history and beauty here as a visit to Trinity College and Brownell Chapel will no doubt confirm!

Very pretty campus…read more Came here on a trip to visit a friend and realized that everyone here was super nice. Some dorms are kinda crappy but the others are very nice. I love their campus, it's a great place to just relax with friends and have fun.

this school is a scam! they only see the children as a dollar bill not as human beings with…read moreemotions. the teachers are inappropriate with the children. the school tried to expel my daughter because i asked for a parents teachers conference for 4 months and they kept refusing to provide me one. i have receipts of them keep rescheduling it. then the parent teachers day came (the day they emailed me to expel my child) (even though my child NEVER had a behavioral problem nor educational issues either) and the teacher couldn't communicate to me regarding my child just see the principal. they do not believe the parents to be hands on. your child will get hurt at the school and they won't inform you until the end of the school day when it's time to pick up your children. they are hiding things they are doing things that should not be done and they are afraid that parents will find out adults stealing from the children. teachers allowing other girl students to be uncomfortable around male students who are sexually harassing them. this is not a christian school at all. they do not believe in love nor grace. they take and take money but do not offer anything. any and everything that your child will need you will have to purchase and supply this is not a school it's more so of a cult if you love your children please do not send them here it is horrible

The school sounds promising, however, it does little to act on the values it preaches. The…read moreadministration does not teach nearly enough about social inequities or promoting equality. Instead, they implement a strict dress code to assimilate minorities and teach equal to or less than what is taught in public school. For a prepatory school, the expectation from a parental standpoint is higher. The facility is highly guarded, so that provides peace of mind, but the remaining issues are glaring, and need to be fixed.

Emanuel Synagogue is a really welcoming, friendly and comfortable place for the first-time or…read moreseasoned synagogue-goer. The rabbi, who is now on leave I do believe, was incredibly welcoming to the boyfriend and I on our first several visits. New faces are always exciting for frequent goers, but the treatment we got was what I hope for when heading to new synagogues. I'm not big on guitars or organs, so those are the few things that I'm not big on at this shul. The High Holidays services were wonderful, excepting for some curious musical choices at times. I try to avoid the guitar-style services because it's a little too new-age for me, and it works out well. If you're looking for a nice, cozy place with beautiful artwork and a welcoming, friendly community, then Emanuel is probably right up your alley.

I grew up in New Jersey and always went to a Jewish day school and a Jewish camp. To me services…read morewere just something that was always there. When I went to college I continued the trend and went every Friday night to services at our Hillel. After college I tried a couple of places but never found somewhere I felt comfortable. Recently after years of not going, I decided to try Emanuel, and I loved it. The Rabbi is extremely nice and the building is beautiful. This is a place I definitely felt comfortable. The Rabbi one of the first times me and my girlfriend went in there asked us if we had somewhere to go to for the High Holidays, which I did not. He said that if we wanted to, to call the office on Monday and tell them to give us two passes for services and we are more than welcome as his guest, which we took him up on. Unfortunately I was unable to make Rosh Hashana service, but when we went for Yom Kippur it was very nice. The cantor did a great job and the envirnment was great and what I was used to.

You never know what to expect with transportation for a wedding but this team has it down to a science. We booked two 55 person Coach busses for our wedding and one for our rehearsal dinner.

Several incompetent drivers cut him off because THEY waited to the last moment to merge into the right traveling lane. With his excellent driving skills the rest of the passengers never even knew what was happening. His use of the GPS rerouted us a few times to avoid traffic jams that could be seen extending off to the horizon; getting us to and from the casino on time. There were even entertainment on the bus, enhancing the ride. And the bathroom was clean and smelled pleasant.

A historic landmark in the heart of Old Wethersfield, the First Church of Christ was erected in…read more1761 as the third meetinghouse of the congregation, which was "gathered" or formed in 1635, and also as the assembly hall for town meetings. As late as 1838, it served this double purpose. Today it is the home and central building of the largest Congregational church in New England. George Washington worshiped in the Meetinghouse on May 20, 1781, while in town to confer with Rochambeau to plan what proved to be the final phase of the American Revolution--the Battle of Yorktown. John Adams visited the Meetinghouse and climbed the ladder in the bell tower to peer through the lantern windows where he beheld, in his words, "the most grand and beautiful Prospect in the World." The Meetinghouse is a model of Congregational or Puritan architecture, with its high, central pulpit, its clear glass windows and its simple, chaste lines. Its simplicity went undisturbed until the 1800s, when a series of alterations gave it a more Gothic appearance. The changes included the removal of the pulpit and the box pews. In 1973, through the generous bequest of Jane Robbins Dunham, the Meetinghouse was magnificently restored to its original character and beauty. The original pulpit was returned. Clear glass was reinstalled. Box and slip pews were put in place. The advantages of modern recessed lighting and air conditioning were also introduced. The bell tower is a showpiece, similar in design to that of Old North Church in Boston. While largely unchanged through the years, it required restoration in 1979-1980, at which time the authentic fan-design windows were installed. In the evening, the lighted spire shines as a beacon of hope and faith, viewable for miles around.

Here for a blood drive that I saw on the side of the road and glad I came in. The church from what…read moreI've seen is really well maintained. There is a receptionist when you walk in that will help you get where you going. I was directed to the basement that is a little dank but from what I can see the place is used for events and seeinf a kitchen it could be a dinner or lunch done here. I was blown away by the bathroom. That is much different than the basement but the first floor is beautiful. I saw on the TV there are events like yoga and the blood drive I'm here for. Old Wethersfield has gems just like this.
