🚨 OFFICIAL CLINTON AMERICA 250 COMMUNITY ADVISORY 🚨
After months of planning, countless meetings, and approximately 7,842 Facebook comments… including 1,376 making us aware of grammatical errors, spelling mistakes, incorrect dates, and a variety of other random issues… Village officials have one simple request:
Please remember… we’re all neighbors tomorrow. 🇺🇸😂
💺 Parking
Yes, there’s extra parking.
Yes, there’s a train.
No, parking directly in front of the gazebo because “I’m only gonna be a minute” is still not an option.
🧸 Stuffed Animal Collection Guidelines
Kids: Go have fun!
Adults: If you hear yourself saying, “That teddy bear would look great in my office,” it may be time to let one of the kids win this round.
🎵 Live Music
Please clap, dance, sing along…
But if you suddenly decide you’re the lead singer, we may politely lower your imaginary microphone.
⚾ Vintage Base Ball
Yes, they really play without gloves.
Yes, they really pitch underhand.
No, yelling, “Use a mitt!” from the sidelines won’t change the rules from the 1860s.
🌭 Food
Our food vendor has worked hard to be here.
Please allow them at least three minutes before asking,
“What’s good?”
Spoiler: It’s all good.
🌡️ Heat Advisory
If you find yourself:
• Arguing with a picnic table…
• Waving at the same golf cart three separate times…
• Or introducing yourself to the gazebo… (His name is Earl.)
It might be time to grab some water and find a little shade.
🚂 Train Service
If the train engineer waves…
Wave back.
This isn’t New York—we still acknowledge each other in Clinton.
📱 Facebook Reminder
Before posting:
“Is anything going on in town today?”
Take a quick look around.
If you see live music, delicious food, kids laughing, patriotic golf carts, vintage base ball, a train full of smiling passengers, and what seems like the entire Village gathered at Warwick Park…
The answer is probably yes.
🇺🇸 Most importantly, relax, laugh, catch up with old friends, meet some new ones, and help us celebrate America’s 250th the way Clinton does best—with community, tradition, and a whole lot of hometown pride.
We’ll see you tomorrow at Warwick Park!
