Free Ice-Skating in Bushnell Park in Hartford, CT

On December 10, the public ice-skating rink in Bushnell Park in Harford, CT was opened, so if you’re looking for something festive and fun to do right before the holidays, you should check it out! The rink can hold up to 75 skaters at a time and each session is limited to 45-minute intervals. The best part? Skating and skate rentals are FREE! You can even take the family ice-skating on Christmas Eve and Christmas Day from 11am to 5pm. For hours and more details, click here.

Of course, if they can make water freeze in the middle of Bushnell Park, that means it’s cold enough to have water freeze on the roads, so be careful this holiday season. Be sure to contact your local Encharter Insurance agent today to review your Watertown CT Car Insurance policy. They want to help you understand your policy and find you the best possible policy for the best possible price.

Workplace Violence Coverage from Encharter Insurance

Due to the tragic events of the past week in Connecticut, the question becomes: “How can a business owner protect his employees and his business from workplace violence?”

Workplace violence insurance can help. According to a recent article from InsureCast, “Workplace Violence insurance coverage is protection against the expenses that a company can face resulting from incidences of workplace violence, including the cost to hire independent security consultants and public relations experts, as well as payment of death benefits and business interruption expenses.” It’s terrible, but these are the statistics with which we live, courtesy of InsureCast:

• Every week, nearly 20 workers are murdered at their place of work
• Every year, companies report:
  • 650 workplace violence-related homicides
  • 2 million assaults
  • 6 million serious threats

It’s time to be sure that you, your employees and your business are safe! Talk to your local Encharter Insurance today about how Workplace Violence Insurance coverage can help you.

Moving? Let Encharter Insurance Make It Easier!

While moving can be scary and stressful, it can also be very exciting. I moved this past March and there were certainly some aspects that I could have lived without. But, I will admit that the overall experience was fun because it was the beginning of a new chapter. One thing that I find most interesting about the process is learning more about the community into which you are moving: the history of the area, where the best places to eat are, and, if you’re a parent, determining the quality of the school system. A good way to do that would be to check the average standardized test scores of the state and/or town in question.

On July 16, the Hartford Courant issued an article based on the 2010 Connecticut Mastery Test scores. The article reports on general improvement of scores of elementary and middle school students in Connecticut. If you are new to Connecticut, or new to an area in Connecticut, be sure to check out this article and use the links it has to investigate the school system in the area.

Another thing to keep in mind while you are preparing for your big move is insurance. Encharter Insurance can help you with all of your personal insurance needs for CT Homeowner’s Insurance, CT Car Insurance, CT Life Insurance and even CT Business Insurance.  We are an independent agency, which means that we can take care of the policy shopping for you and you can be sure you’re getting the best possible policy for the best possible price.

So be sure to contact your local Encharter Insurance agent for questions about Watertown CT Homeowner’s Insurance, Watertown CT Car Insurance, Watertown Life Insurance and Watertown CT Business Insurance. You can call us at 888-865-1244, you can visit our virtual insurance office at www.encharter.com or you can visit our office for insurance in Watertown CT.
