South Common, Framingham, MA

FRAMINGHAM, MA – Billed as a Winter Wonderland, many organizers and residents were afraid that warm weather would ruin everything for this mid-February Downtown Framingham special event.

It’s not often that the people of Framingham wish it would be a bit colder in February, but many hoped for just that.

Earlier in the week the Town constructed an ice-skating rink on South Common, but warm mid-week temperatures dashed the hopes of those who came with skates slung over their shoulders hoping to spend a few hours relaxing and skating in the middle of the usually hectic Downtown.
