Happy Labor Day!

Here are some Labor Day fun facts!
1. Hot Dog Season. The National Hot Dog and Sausage Council (who would have guessed there was such a thing?) estimates that Americans eat 7 billion hot dogs between Memorial Day and Labor Day.
2. Wearing White: The old rule against wearing white after Labor Day started in the Victorian era to signal that summer vacations were over.
3. Town Offices are closed today for the holiday!

We wish you all a very happy and safe Labor Day!
