Rumford Lions Annual Christmas Ornament Features Old City Hall

The Rumford Lions have produced the 8th edition in a series of Christmas ornaments that commemorate historic icons of East Providence. This year’s ornament depicts East Providence’s Old City Hall building as it appeared circa 1970. Ornaments are available from any member of the Rumford Lions or you may order by mail at Rumford Lions, PO Box 4921, Rumford, RI 02916. Questions may be directed to rumfordlions@cox.net or by telephone at 401 474-1212. The ornaments are made from gold plated brass with durable epoxy based paints and come in an attractive maroon box with a dark green plush liner. A pamphlet describing the history of City Hall is also included. Not only will this ornament look great on your Christmas tree for years to come, they also make great gifts for friends and coworkers and do not forget that displaced “Townie” living in other areas of the country and world.

Ornaments are $17.00 each and if you elect mail order, please include $2.00 each for postage. Ornaments may also be purchased at the Newman Congregational Church Missions Bazaar (located at the intersection of Newman and Pawtucket Avenues in Rumford) on Saturday, December 5, 9 AM to 3 PM, or after November 1, at the optometry offices of Dr, Behmke and Associates, 2757 Pawtucket Avenue, East Providence, RI 02914.

A limited number of last year’s Rumford Chemical Works ornaments are still available. Please contact us 401 474-1212 or rumfordlions@cox.net to confirm availability.
