Welcome to our newly updated website. We hope this site will be easier for you to use and for us to update and provide information about the activities we plan.

Our heartfelt thanks to Southborough resident Tim Ellis for his creativity and work in designing this site and making it operational.

In 2013, SOLF will be celebrating its 25th anniversary. Watch this site for more information on activities and events planned to celebrate this occasion. The site is a work in progress and we will be updating reports of past events as time permits.
