Days Ahead For Doing Good & Having Fun

This is a big weekend for peace and fun in our community with the 3rd annual Peter De Mott Trot on Sunday, and events surrounding it.

Then on Tuesday, there is the Taste of the Nation event, with restaurateurs and other food professionals hosting a gala event for fighting hunger.

The De Mott Trot is preceded by a concert tonight at the Finger Lakes Wine Center, an interesting place to congregate. Double E, the Evil City String Band, and the Grady Girls perform. We imagine wine is available.

Peace activities continue on Saturday with an afternoon rally by the Ithaca Catholic Worker and others at the corner of Clinton and Meadow Streets.

And on Sunday, the crowd will be having a picnic at North Point at Taughannock Park, a beautiful spot, if you've never been. And a convivial group.
