If you're gearing up for a fun weekend, here are some Wilton events and information.

Good Morning, Wilton!

  • If you still have back-to-school shopping to do, remember that Connecticut's annual 'tax free' shopping week runs until Saturday, Aug. 24th. Taxes are waived for clothing and footwear costing less than $300.

  • On Saturday, head down to SoNo Marketplace for a "Barks and Beer" fundraiser for Bully Breed Rescue. The event will be in the new outdoor Farm Terrace Beer Garden. Just a $5 donation receives ticket redeemable for any draft craft beer. Have a beer. Help a GREAT cause!
