July

4 Wardsboro Annual 4th of July Street Fair - Each year as many as 5000 visitors get up early and join the population of about 700 to celebrate the Country's Independence.

The fields have been hayed to park all the cars. A hay wagon shuttles those who come late enough to need to park further away.

Booths of all kinds are open by 9 am. There are Craft Booths, Antiques, Fine Art, books and a White Elephant Sale.

BuntingAn auction of goods donated to the cause helps raise further money, but the highlight of the day is the parade.

The parade consists of floats, antique cars, fire engines, and tractors, bands and marching bands, which march through the town, up into a field at the end of the road, turn round and march back through, so you get to see the parade two times!

When you get hungry there's the Hot Dog Booth, Strawberry Shortcake, Chicken BBQ, and Wardsboro's famous home baked pies.

There are games for the kids, a dunk tank, history exhibit, quilt and flower show and display of paintings by local artists.

You couldn't find a better place to spend the day than at Wardsboro's Annual 4th of July Street Fair.

October

Oral History As Discovery Research - Oral history is a research method that can be used to explore the fabric of everyday experience, past or present. Want to know what life on a farm was like in the 1940s? An older farmer can tell you. He or she can also describe the complex changes that led us from then to now. This presentation by Greg Sharrow explores the richness and significance of oral history as a research method, illustrated with excerpts from his field recordings, featuring remarkable people and memorable stories.
