Today marks a day of remembrance for the winter storm of 1982, which significantly affected travel and visibility across Hollenwil Ridge.
Residents may recall extended closures along several access roads as conditions deteriorated rapidly throughout the morning.
The town recognizes this date as part of its recorded history.
A decorated evergreen was observed illuminated overnight near the old Ridge Road barn. No event permit was filed, and no related activity was reported. The area was inspected and found to be undisturbed. Observation will continue through the holiday period.
A hymn book dated decades earlier was discovered inside a piano bench during routine unpacking. The book shows signs of long-term use. No ownership markings were found.
