- WEATHER -

While kids (and maybe teachers) probably hoped that the 5 am snow plow meant they have some extra time home this morning, and the snow certainly did stick and accumulate a bit, by CNY standards it was the kind of wintry morn where everyone brushes off and goes about their business.



Summary thus far:

Happy Birthday to Dolly Abbe!

Thanksgiving Day - Thursday, November 23rd 
9 am @ Firemen's Field
 "Please Join us for the 2nd Annual Waterville Turkey Trot! 
This will be an informal way for friends,family and neighbors to come out and enjoy a nice walk or run before we sit down with those most important to us to stuff ourselves. I am hoping that everyone will join us in bringing with them food items and/or a monetary donation for the Waterville Area Food Pantry (we will have boxes for the food and an envelope for the cash or check donations). We will meet at the start line for the Mary Cleary Memorial Run (near the Little League Field) and follow the same course. Since this is an informal run/walk please stay on the sidewalks and run or walk whatever distance you want or have time for. The goal for this day is to have fun, get some exercise and support our community through a great organization. "

Plus, music, refreshments, and a visit from Santa in the Firehouse afterwards.
