A Great Traffic Jam!

    Tioga Street, the Main thoroughfare running
through the Borough of Tunkhannock, was
literally jammed yesterday.
     There was no way a car could move. But,
then again, there weren't any cars!
     The Street was blocked off as residents
and visitors came to town for "Founder's Day!"
And there were thousands of them!   
      It's like having a carnival in the middle
of town!
      Tents lined both sides of the street. They
served as booths for Service organizations,
artists, craftsmen, and vendors of all sorts.
      Folding chairs were set out on the street
in front of a portable stage where parents
and their kids watched performances ranging
from a Puppet show to a Western show
complete with Saloon girls and Gun Slingers.
      Church groups served up dinners for
those craving a full meal. 
       There was something for everyone. And
it was great to see people coming together
to celebrate the community whether you
were a local or a visitor.
        I think the founders would have loved
it!
       Hope you get to a similar celebration
now that Summer is here....and that all of
your NEWS is good!
