Has it been awhile since you’ve been back? Here are some things to check out, maybe with a group of your classmates.
- Springfield Museums (Smithsonian Affiliate)
- The Springfield Armory Museum (National Historic site)
- Basketball Hall of Fame
Shoot some hoops! ….check out Wilt Chamberlin’s shoe size!
( next door is Max’s Tavern – great food! ) - New England Air Museum, adjacent to the airport
- Storrs House Museum (Longmeadow Historical Society)
- Fannie Stebbins Wildlife Refuge (MassLive, Allen Bird Club)
- Union Station (Wikipedia, MassLive)
There are, obviously, many other attractions in Western Mass for those who are taking more time to explore. Deerfield, Amherst, and Stockbridge have been mentioned as worthwhile destinations. Watch this space for recommendations.
Thanks to Mark for those pictures of the Springfield Museums!
