We’re liveblogging the welcome back picnic. Here’s the news:
6:33 pm — “I think it’s the best picnic I’ve been to, but the weather is a shame. I think everyone is still enjoying it. There are a lot more people here than last year’s picnic, but both were great! My burger is great and B&Bs food is good. It was nice of them to come and cook here,” said Mrs. Marianne Gilland, member of the Pelham school board.
6:20 pm — The party is over but no one is leaving. The DJ is gone. The DJ was playing love songs I don’t like.
