The Nostalgic Connecticut Restaurant That Serves Mouthwatering Breakfast Every Single Morning

If Connecticut had a breakfast hall of fame, Ken’s Corner Breakfast & Lunch in Glastonbury would have its own wing, a plaque, and probably a commemorative pancake. This is the kind of place that makes you feel nostalgic for mornings you haven’t even had yet, which is a trick very few restaurants can pull off.

Norwich Free Academy plans $2M football field, track renovation

While Norwich Free Academy has been in the process of updating its facilities, the school will soon start another update project. Head of School Nathan Quesnel formally announced the school’s plans to renovate the football field and track during the NFA Annual Corporator Meeting on Nov. 5. Work will begin after this school year’s graduation. The last time the field was updated was back in 1999, so the current field has “outlived its useful life,” Quesnel said. Other ongoing or completed NFA projects Quesnel highlighted include renovations to the cafeteria and Slater Hall and the creation of The Grid computer room in the library for the school’s e-sports team, which started the prior school year. What’s the plan? The new football field will features state of the art synthetic truth, a new track, a press box in the bleachers, new bathrooms, a new concession stand. This project will also include a new wildcat statue located on the other side of campus, where the historic beech tree once stood, Quesnel said. The project is expected to cost $2 million, which includes state funds. The school has also already secured a major donor to the project, Quesnel said. More: Norwich Free Academy
