    "The county has quite a few events in the five parks through thr Maine streets in town;art festivals, cookoffs. Food truck events, parades. The Agri-Civic Center hosts not only rodeos, but also the County Fair, a Halloween Festival to minimize house to house trick or treating, and anyone can sponsor a booth, with carnival type games, mini dog races. There is also a Community Health Fair each year in January, with local hospital, clinics and emergency services being involved. The Tri County Food Bank also does a distribution about three times a year. "

    "After 20 years, I still love my neighborhood and our small town. Quiet, friendly. The only downside is when the snowbirds invade us from September to around April. Then our population goes from around 25,000 to over 40,000. Traffic. Ugh. But a small price to pay for the rest of the year. "
