Saturday a.m.


*******************
***********

57 degrees and sunny.


WKTV has a story about Deansboro and preparations for today's Willie Nelson Concert.

************


The "Big Story" in Waterville, yesterday, had to do with traffic tie-ups in two locations:
1. On Route 315, where old pavement between the mid-way point of the Buell Avenue hill and the junction of Route 12 is being milled in preparation for resurfacing.

2. On Putnam Street, where the First Annual Putnam Street Purge offered a dozen or more Yard Sales!

Lynn and Shirley waved from the Harts' front yard;


Wendy had plants from the Garden Club's Sale and a few other treasures -

that's where Carol Tower found a nifty new hat!





The Event continues today, from 9:00 - 5:00.

Elsewhere in the village:

at the Machold residence on W. Bacon Street a new porch that suits the rest of the house is well under way!


On West Main Street, the new Belfield Agency Building takes shape.
It will be painted dark "Ivy Green" with white trim.

******************

On Sanger Hill Road, the Ingersolls' peonies and Johnstons' roses are good reason to slow down.

Out on Canning Factory Road, Elfie Goedeker's Candelabra Primroses make a bright border!

****************


The Red Sox really shone, last night.

From yesterday's O-D:

Lemery wins event at Albany swim meet

Clinton Cuda's swimmer Tyler Lemery, of Waterville, had a strong showing at the Albany Starfish Meter Madness Meet on June 3 at Niskayuna High School. Lemery, swimming in the Boys 10 to 11 Division, placed first in the 100 meter freestyle event. He also took fourth in the 50 backstroke and 50 breaststroke, and finished fifth in both the 50 butterfly and 100 individual medley.

Watch for feature articles written by Nicole Timian, a senior at Waterville Central School, who is a New Visions Intern at the Observer-Dispatch.
