RANDOLPH— Downtown Randolph was closed to vehicular traffic for several hours as an estimated 1,500  people strolled along North Main Street to celebrate the town’s inaugural Winterfest on Dec. 1. 

Visitors stopped at the numerous businesses and organizations that offered entertainment, giveaways, and treats during the event. “The collaboration between the Chamber of Commerce, the town, the schools, local businesses, service organizations, local artisans, and performers was a historic ‘first’ and I could not be more pleased at the outcome,” said Town Planner Michelle Tyler.
