🇺🇸 TOMORROW WE REMEMBER.
Tomorrow evening, our community will gather to mark the 25th anniversary of September 11, 2001.
Country Fit will be at the Lehigh Valley Ray Shaver Depot with equipment for our annual 9/11 Tribute Challenge.
Participants can honor the first responders of Ground Zero by “climbing” 1,355 feet — the height of the stairs to the top floor of the World Trade Center.
This isn't about who finishes fastest.
It's about remembering why we're climbing.
📅 Tomorrow — Friday, September 11
⏰ Program begins at 5 PM
📍 Lehigh Valley Ray Shaver Depot, Newark Valley
Please join us as our community remembers together. 🇺🇸

Wow! Time is flying! Only three more weeks until the 33rd Annual Richford Potato Festival! Join us on Saturday September 19th from 9 to 3. We have lots of vendors for your shopping pleasure, children’s games, raffle baskets and of course the highly anticipated potato ice cream! New this year is a cake wheel! Also, there are plenty of potato themed food items available at the Congregational Church. In addition, since the Richford Fire Department is unable to have a barbeque this year, the Richford Tastee Treat food truck will have chicken barbeque available. Proceeds from the barbeque sales will benefit the Becky’s Backpack program for next year. The Potato Festival is the biggest event for the Richford Historical Society, and we would love to see our community members come out and enjoy the fun! Please follow us to find out more about our Historical Society and share so that your friends don’t miss out on the fun!!!
