Posted on November 8, 2022

Cushing Academy is a private, coeducational college-preparatory school for boarding and day students in Ashburnham. It serves approximately 400 students in grades 9-12 and a postgraduate year.

The over-sized rocking horse on Route 12 says it all: Winchendon is “Toy Town USA” — thanks to its history as a toy manufacturing center. See toys from that era at the Winchendon History Center, then stop by the nearby GALA Art Center to check out what local artists are creating today.

Westminster

The “great outdoors” is really great in Townsend, with two large recreation areas — Willard Brook State Park and Townsend State Forest — and the Squannicook River enticing visitors to get away from it all. Outdoor summer concerts, art shows and fairs add a cultural flair to the community, too.

Templeton

Sterling

Shirley

The town of Shirley, with its well-preserved historic New England center, describes itself as “a slice of quiet, small town life, with rural ambience, a sense of civic pride and volunteer spirit among residents and well-preserved historic roots

Royalston

Visitors looking to get away from it all will enjoy spending time in Royalston, with its vast conservation and recreation areas. Royalston Center, with its library, Town Hall, and Historical Society building, is listed both as a National Register Historic District and a Local Historic District.

Princeton
