Photos Oriskany Falls Rotary Club
The Oriskany Falls Rotary Club hosted a community clean up along their adopted piece of highway on a chilly Wednesday night. Great work by a great turnout.
You can join in the Village of Waterville on Saturday, May 4th with the Waterville Rotary Club at 9am.

The weather took a pleasant turn on Thursday! Warming up to around 70 degrees with blue skies, sunshine, and a lot of the community spending time outdoors.

It was a popular day for Roc-Star Ice Cream with an abundance of homemade flavors!

Down the road, Fresh Picked Antiques is also re-opened for the season and will see more consistent hours as summer nears, but weather permitting they will be open Thursday- Monday.

As we near May, another business will be opening different doors. Watch for Fred's Barber Shop to make the move up to the Old Bank Building.
