We’d like to bring our communities together when we all need it the most. While we had to reschedule our original Mudfest date of May 2nd because of the pandemic, we'd like to still honor that date by hosting our virtual “Chalk the Walk” event to share some smiles, joy and hope.
We’re asking you to get outside and create a positive message, whether it’s in your driveway with sidewalk chalk or paint, on a dirty vehicle, or by some other creative means (while maintaining social distancing, of course!) Then, post a pic of your message on your Facebook, Instagram or Twitter page (or all three, if you have them!). ***Make sure you tag Daniel Barden Mudfest in your post so we can see it, like it and share it!
When you donate $25 or more, you’ll receive a special-edition t-shirt, which will help keep our summer Daniel Barden Adventure Scholarship in place, allowing for children from both central New York and Connecticut to enjoy a summer adventure and bonding experience. While you don’t need to donate during Chalk the Walk to participate, your help is greatly appreciated: http://store.cnyracing.com/bepositive
Let's fill our communities with positive messages!

With all of the distant ways of sharing cheer, it seems like the perfect year for May Day Baskets to return this Friday, May 1st. Leaving a basket (of sorts) filled with flowers (of sorts) on someone's door. Then, knocking and leaving the surprise. Click Here for history on May Day if you are unfamiliar. Click Here for a nostalgic 2015 NPR Article. Send us any photos or stories of your own May Day Baskets or experiences! 

Tuesday morning the previous day's rain let go with a blanket of fog. But continued with more warm sunshine!

The scattered sunny days are a gift to many of us in CNY lately, but especially when it lands on your birthday! One newly 4 year old received a special version of the Waterville Area Birthday Train to match her love of  vehicles with big wheels! Tractor Trailers, motorcycles, and lots of honking, cheering cars.

- WEATHER - ***** - VILLAGE NOTES - Click for webpage with Full Notes  from Trustee Nichols Also from Trustee Nichols, an update on speed in the village. Data has again been retrieved from the Village's radar speed signs. The portable sign has been placed on NYS315 for the past 3 weeks. I have noticed first-hand that this sign's presence has made a huge difference in slowing vehicles down coming into the village. Reminder that the sign records data at the time the vehicle passes the sign, not when the vehicle first registers on the sign. Buell Ave (Route 315), from March 11 - April 1. Traveling into the village: Total vehicles: 22,424 0 - 30 MPH: 11,715 (52.24%) 31 - 35 MPH: 4,431 (19.76%) 36 - 40 MPH: 3,022 (13.48%) 41 - 45 MPH: 1,891 (8.43%) 46 - 65 MPH: 1,365 (6.09%) - Some of these vehicles were moving over 75 MPH. Traveling out of the village: Total vehicles: 23,834 0 - 30 MPH: 2,415 (10.13%) 31 - 35 MPH: 6,041 (25.35%) 36 - 40 MPH: 6,88
