Town Hall and the Post Office both are closed, as are several local businesses and organizations. Waveny Pool is open, on a limited basis, and will open next weekend (May 31) for the season. What follows is a list of what’s open and closed in New Canaan—it’s comprehensive though incomplete, so please add more information to the comments thread and we’ll update it through the weekend.
