****"This Is My Ridgefield - LYRICS****By Georgie Brennan (2013)
(I) Walked passed Cass Gilbert's Fountain
The Keeler Tavern and The Aldrich
The hardware store around Catoonah on Main
Church bells ring down Branchville Road
Marchers parade while muskets explode
Ballard Park green within walls of stone
This is the town that I call my home
This is my Ridgefield
This is the place
At the foot of the Berkshires since 1708
Mamanasco to Pierrepont from Great Pond to your heart
Here's where the tigers all roam
In this Ridgefield town that I call home
Old Glory unfurled down the front of town hall
Bagels from Steve's the colors of Fall
The rec.center, playhouse, CHIRP, the holiday stroll
(I)Walked in to Bissell's Pharmacy
Picked up The Press waved hi to Donna and Ed
Nora said how the kids have all grown
She watched them grow up in this town they call home
This is my Ridgefield
This is the place
At the foot of the Berkshires since 1708
Mamanasco, to Pierrepont, from Great Pond, to your heart
Here's where the tigers all roam
In this Ridgefield town that I call home
Our heralded schools
Culinary delights
Manicured fields with games under the lights
Driving 35 to route 7 just today
Ridgebury to 116
102 to 33
This is my Ridgefield
This is the place
At the foot of the Berkshires since 1708
Mamanasco, to Pierrepont, from Great Pond, to your heart
Here's where the tigers all roam
In this Ridgefield town that I call home

Our family loved living in Ridgefield, two children graduated from RHS in 1975 and 1976, the other two went to East Ridge. Some of my best, life-long friends were there. Thank you for the song that brings back wonderful memories!

Thanks for the memories. I was born there in 1960 and lived there until I got married in 1989. My dad was a Police office and Fire Fighter. Would have been nice to see some old timers.
