Happenings Rotary Mower: Gasoline powered, metal detector used to locate misplaced trowels, shears and hose nozzles in tall grass. The machine indicates a 'contact' by giving off a loud 'whining' sound and then immediately stalling. The Marion Legion baseball games in Wayne and surrounding counties. To have a game you must hire two umpires, so, again, we must raise over $1000 to cover expenses. This year's new cookbook is just off the presses! Still $2 as in previous years and with lots of yummy selections! You can get a recipe book at one of the games or by calling 926.4436 or 926.7707. Reports show lots of folks are interested in our town, and check in to this website, whether they live near or far.

August 1 is the trip to Portville-Warren to visit the Blair outlet and Blair retail store, Sprague's in Portville for a maple sugaring demonstration, and a fabulous turkey dinner.

Our family wishes to extend our deepest sympathy to the Haskins family, our friends and neighbors of 49 years, with the recent passing of their brother, Scott. In past months they have lost their mother and father, Ruth and Budd, and now, Scott. He was an energetic youngster and, in later years, a hard worker. Even in early childhood his small hands were strong, when I held him and our son, when we went on an adventure. A remembrance from your neighborhood family. Click here to see Death Notices.
