Event comments
Stroll thru an older town with many old houses, a historic train station and several Victorian tower homes. Lots of different architecture. You will pass the drug store that was used in the Girl Interrupted. The Union Church where all churches worshipped until the congregations had enough money to build their own. There is a long running street fair held in the middle of July on a Thursday called Jubilee Day.
