Celebrations; Heritagefest. Part of the crowd that watched the "dam lighting" at the close of Friday night's Heritagefest program. The lights recently placed under the bridge to shine on the dam were turned off as were the bridge lights. After the music and the bridge lights were lit, the dam was slowly illuminated until full power was reached. At the same time fire trucks on either side of the river sent sprays out over the river just below the dam. A flotilla of boats running with red and blue lights came down the river and circled just above the dam. The crowd lingered enjoying the sight and mood. Accession No. 90N0314. Additional photographs and resources can be found at the Waverly Public Library on the local and family history page http://www.waverlyia.com/public-library/research/local-and-family-history-collection.aspx Accession No. 90N0314
