The Town of
East Brookfield, birthplace of Connie Mack of baseball fame, sits
astride the old Bay Path in Central Massachusetts and shares three
beautiful lakes with neighboring towns. This friendly community,
youngest in the Commonwealth, was incorporated in 1920 when the
Honorable Calvin Coolidge was Governor. Town residents take pride in
their school system, churches, town services, senior citizen
activities and the many volunteers who make municipal holiday
observances possible and secure the success of the town's charitable
events. The Fourth of July celebration is a family affair, capped
with a massive fireworks display that attracts thousands of
spectators. East Brookfield has a nine-hole golf course, bowling
lanes, lakes for swimming, sailing, fishing and water sports, a
Little League ball field and year-round Recreation Department
activities for residents' enjoyment. The town also has many small
businesses providing for community needs and giving employment to
many. Town residents are fond of the small community and proud of
what has been accomplished since East Brookfield was founded.
