Thursday Night On the Square is a very nice place to go. Just walking around and seeing people have a nice evening. It reminds me of the old pictures you see with families stolling through the park and talking to various venders. ( early 1900's) A very calming small town feel. Glad we have this kind of venue available to us. Very Happy
