Sounds like a Good Time.
Too bad no mention of Fireworks.
That would Top it off Right.

So, parking at the Library will be NIL!!! think about that folks- there are folks that use the library and like to park there too.

ntkr14, in my opinion, we got to realize that city council doesn’t do anything for the masses, but instead the special few.

Well-was not as good a time as I thought it would be.
With ALL the Sponsors that were named – I expected more.
The Band which was good–did not play any Christmas music while I was there. It was OK of a time.
