Jim Hoffman told me more than 2,800 free ice cream sundaes were consumed, so I know at least 2,801 people were there (because I didn't get one). I took a bunch of photos at the event, a couple of which appear in today's paper. I thought I would post a few more here, along with a link to the CU page where all of them can been seen. Unfortunately, I wasn't able to photograph the cow-milking contest between the Fonda-Fultonville teachers and Mohawk town officials, because I was playing music at the time that happened.

DiscobulousSep-21-09 11:26 PM I'd like to know which group won the milking contest. Both teachers and local officials are tops at milking the public cash cow, so why not a real cow.
