Despite the downpour, we had a crowd at the 300th table! The weather rather did in our magic cash booth, but it was a fun day anyway. Thanks to everyone who came out in the rain and voted in our contest on the proper way to pronounce the name of our town -- and got their souvenir voting stickers.

the clear winner was STONE-UMM. Sorry StoneHAMers.

We even sparked this week's cartoon in the Independent.
