The Springfield Fourth of July Parade is approaching. And if you've never heard of it then you might not realize you are missing one of the largest events in Otsego County. Thousands attend this northern town to watch the parade, eat apple pie, and listen to the community band play under an old maple tree in front of the library. I will be setting up an ADK outreach table on the grounds and need assistance. I would 'like' as many as possible to 'hike' the parade route.

The Millers Mills Grange is once again sponsoring its annual Millers Mills Ice Harvest , Feb 14, 2010 at 11:00 through the afternoon. There is no entrance fee. The grange will be serving soup and cocoa and such and there will be a raffle. This is a wonderful winter community event involving cutting the ice blocks from the pond and dragging them to the ice house on a horse drawn sledge.
