What a great turnout at yesterday's Richard Wall House Community Fair! Many thanks to our great number of community partners, historical groups, friends groups, and special vendors providing food, fun, and music! Finally, a special shout-out to Tim Esposito and the Historical Commission who put in hours of coordination behind the scenes to make this wonderful event what it was, and shared so much knowledge through nonstop Wall House Museum tours throughout the event.
