    "It’s a close knit community, it’s a small town feel without being so far away from everything. For different holidays they close off Mill St (Main St) and have a type of festival to celebrate, days like Italian day or African American day, they even have a car show every year. During warmer days they have First Friday every month. It’s the first Friday of the month and they have a festival on Mill St just to celebrate the town and the people that live here. "
