THE STORY



   OF FAIRFIELD














                     Fairfield, Connecticut is a town consistently celebrated
                     by Money magazine as one of the Best Places to Live. The
                     iconic town of Fairfield is situated on the picturesque and
                     ecologically flourishing Long Island Sound, home to five town
                     beaches and miles of sandy shores.  Fairfield is renowned for
                     its natural beauty, strong community, enviable cuisine, and a
                     dynamic interplay of seaside and countryside living.

                     Long noted for the Community’s scholastic prowess, Fairfield
                     Residents are accustomed to witnessing a very significant
                     percentage of children matriculate from the illustrious
                     Fairfield school system to gain acceptance at many of the
                     most elite universities in the world. Fairfield’s commitment to
                     provide a superior education for all of its children accounts
                     for its well respected eleven elementary schools, three middle
                     schools, and four high schools, two of which are private.  


                     Fairfield is also home to two highly regarded institutions
                     of higher learning, Fairfield University and Sacred Heart
                     University, alphabetically and respectively.  While these college
                     campuses add a special dimension to the town’s diverse
                     culture, it is abundantly clear that Fairfield in general is not
                     part of a College Town... but rather, the Colleges are a part of
                     Fairfield.

                     The town of Fairfield Department of Parks and Recreation
                     maintains 170 acres of parks, 5 miles of beaches, 36 playing
                     fields, 2 golf courses, 2 marinas, a Fitness Center, 31 asphalt
                     tennis courts, amongst other important recreational facilities.
                     This enviable lifestyle becomes even more compelling when
                     realizing that Fairfield offers great transportation access for
                     New England and New York’s economic, sports, and cultural
                     opportunities via Metro North’s New Haven or Amtrak service,
                     driving via I-95 and Merritt Parkway.
