WATERTOWN â Organizers have gotten the go-ahead to put on the Jefferson County Dairy Parade in June after last yearâs event was canceled because of the COVID-19 pandemic.
Jay M. Matteson, agricultural coordinator for the Jefferson County Economic Development Agency, said he found out late Thursday afternoon that the parade in Watertown can be held on June 4, with the theme this year is âThis Milk is For You!â
âWe got it approved,â Mr. Matteson, agricultural coordinator for the Jefferson County Economic Development Agency, said. âWeâre very excited. This is a real parade.â
City Manager Kenneth A. Mix and Jefferson County Board of Legislators Chairman Scott A. Gray both signed off on having the parade this year, as long as COVID-19 cases remain low.
Dear Abby,
Iâm a young wife. I married after three months of dating my military husband. He was previously in an on-again/off-again relationship that lasted about eight years, during which she had a baby with another man, etc. I believe my husband is still in love with her. After constantly asking him, he says he just wishes her well and he doesnât have any romantic feelings. Iâm not sure what to do, and I just keep overthinking it. Any thoughts?
Hates Husbandâs History
Stop torturing your husband â and yourself â by constantly asking him about his feelings for his unfaithful ex-girlfriend. Get to work building your self-esteem, and you will have less to worry about. Your husbandâs history (baggage) is his own. You are making a mistake by dragging it into your marriage. If you concentrate on the positive, you will have a happier marriage, and so will your husband.
The 3 Willows Event Center was ready to pop champagne bottles at its first wedding reception at the new venue in Lyons Falls on July 25 of last year.
But COVID-19 hit last March and the entire wedding reception season at the 500-seat wedding and event banquet center was canceled, leaving couples and 3 Willow Event Center owners hoping the 2021 season would be different.
And it is different.
Last month, the state released restrictive wedding guidelines leaving wedding reception venues scrambling at what the regulations mean and how to apply them. Gov. Andrew M. Cuomo announced he was allowing weddings up to 150 people, provided that everyone attending had proof of a negative virus test. The guidelines also include that county health departments have to approve all weddings.
