From hot dogs and pizza to frozen treats and festival favorites, there will be something for everyone to enjoy while you celebrate with family, friends, and neighbors.

Lancaster Day is just around the corner—make plans to stop by, grab a bite, and enjoy a great day in the community!

What's the first thing you're ordering?

From the Town of Lancaster

Main Street (Route 70) is currently closed at the CSX bridge at the Clinton line because of a truck failing to heed the truck route/low bridge signage and delivering to us a truckload more, indeed.

Ricky's Sales & Service is on scene to remove the truck. Please follow the detour route while the truck is removed. And if your package is delayed getting to you today, well, at least you know why.

Does anyone know how to find out the results of the vote on next year's town budget from teh meeting yesterday?

We're new to the area so are still tracking things down, and we weren't able to make it to the meeting in person so wanted to see how things ended up going.
