Over 60 vendors greet “Wells River’s “So Long Summer, Hello Fall!”
Event honcho Richard Roderick announced on Saturday noon, September 5, 2026 that he has been “in town and on the street for every event for the past 14 years and this year is the biggest I have seen yet,” he exclaimed to The Bridge Weekly as we strolled by his table under a tent that protected him from the sun’s rapidly heating rays.
He said the businesses and organizations that have been a part of the gala have enjoyed it over the years. He said this year he counted over 60 of them had signed up, a full 10 more than last year.
Danville's Luke Morrison, 15, Is A Bright, Young Military Collector With His Own Museum.
Morrison is 15 years old and a Ninth-Grade student at the nearby Danville School. His marks are good, he tells me, even though over the past year or so his chores and job tasks at home have increased many times over. Luke seems very able to promote his new military museum, and he has met with early stardom after the New York Times published a story a month or so ago, "The 15-year-old Keeping War Memories Alive."
