50th Anniversary

2025 is CCC’s 50th anniversary! We are celebrating 50 years of Care, Curiosity, and Community throughout this year and into 2026 (read our history here).

  • Care: At CCC we believe that strong and secure relationships are the heart and soul of quality early childhood care for children, families, and educators. Children are learning every moment and learn the deepest lessons from the caring exchange. During our 50 years, we have cared for thousands of children and their families.
  • Curiosity: Through a curriculum centered on exploration and play, our educators strengthen a child’s natural curiosity. CCC’s predictable routines and consistent supervision provide structure within which children are encouraged to explore a wide range of activities, laying the foundation for a lifetime of learning.
  • Community: It truly takes a village to raise a child. With children at the center of everything we do, we understand that their well-being depends on strong relationships with their families and their community. We strive to be a partner to all our different communities – families, neighborhoods, schools, towns, and beyond.

All of this is something to celebrate, and we look forward to observing this milestone with you!

  • Join Us at a 50th Anniversary Event. We will be observing this milestone with several events starting in 2025 and extending into 2026, including our 50th anniversary gala on Saturday, October 18, 2025, at the Nashawtuc Country Club!
  • Get in Touch. Did you or your children attend Concord Children’s Center at some point over the past 50 years, or did you work with us, but have lost contact with CCC? Please share your current contact details so that we can stay in touch with you and keep you up to date on the planned festivities!

  • Contribute a Memory or Memorabilia! Do you have a favorite memory or photo from your or your child’s time at Concord Children’s Center? Share it with us! Or do you have a piece of CCC memorabilia — maybe a Ripley quilt from a past auction, an old CCC t-shirt, or something else — that you’d be willing to loan to CCC to use for the 50th anniversary festivities? If so, contact CCC Development Coordinator Jennifer Saxe.
  • Relive the Memories. Do you remember the CCC 25th anniversary slideshow created in 2000? Watch it now and see who you recognize!
