August 1, 2010 - Family Day in the Park

On August 1st from 1:00 pm-5:00 pm plan a Family Day in the Park

Pack your picnic basket and put your family in the car and head to Veteran's Memorial Park in Montgomery for a fun filled day. Enjoy lunch with your family and then grab some watermelon (provided by the Village) and share it with your Montgomery family and friends.

There will be plenty activities for the entire family throughout the day.

You may choose to use the play ground, play basketball, play tennis or join in the old fashioned games; sack-races, two-legged races and water balloon toss.

The family may choose to take a walk through the pleasure grounds or just sit by the river for awhile. There will also be old fashioned craft activities such as candle dipping, quill pen writing, a fishing game and feather darts.

The Sheriff's Department will be doing child fingerprinting.

All day long there will be music on the bandstand by “Breakneck Annie”.

“Breakneck Annie” is a band performing Americana, Folk/traditional Music. Good time music-not quite bluegrass, not quite old time, not quite folk. The band is rarely serious and always fun.

Five musicians playing banjo Gene Mueller, mandolin Graham Vest, -guitar Terry Seeley, accordion Anne Loeb, washboard Bill Buskey and an expanding array of instruments and other implements of destruction. Perfect for a Picnic!

Don't forget to bring your lawn chairs and blankets!!!
