The New Britain Civic Association—formed in 1953—is a non-profit, non-political, 501-C-3, organization which, since 1957, has owned and operated the 14-acre Covered Bridge Park on Keeley Avenue. Though the park has become the major focus of the Association in recent years, and is still a very important focus of our organization, it also sponsors other community activities such as the Fishing Contest, Covered Bridge Day, Summer Camp Program, Duck Derby, and the Christmas Tree Lighting.
