Community Update

Since we are not holding our traditional ceremony, we have uploaded a few pictures from 2019.

We hope you are staying safe, and we wish you well.

Hello, I hope everyone is having the best summer they can have, in these strange days.

We, at the Board of Trade had hoped that by now, things would be returning to normal, and in some cases they are almost back. Patio dining, outdoor activities are possible as are gatherings where social distancing is possible.

After much consideration, however, we have decided to cancel our September Fish Fry, and the November Appreciation night.

Stay Safe and Wash Your Hands!
