Aside from being a bit cloudy, it was a relatively nice night weather-wise. Each week the weather has been better, so let’s hope next Thursday is sunny and warm!

We were also thrilled that the Fringe could join us for a second week in a row, with their “children” in tow. They were on hand so those interested could sign up as a Villager to keep on top of Fringe-related news.
