WHAT A GREAT SHOW WE HAVE TOGETHER THIS YEAR.Sorry to say Jerry Fessenden is not able to make it.One more thing I just got notified yesterday that the American Legion Post12 board said they will not be opening the Kitchen so bring you own food or go out and get it. There are two restuarnts about 1 mile north form the Legion and a Pizza resturant with good food 3/4 mile south of the legion.
