Schoharie Holds Community Festival

The Schoharie Central School picked a beautiful day for their Community Festival, an annual summer kick-off event held outside on their sports fields and around the school grounds. The free community-wide celebration featured student club expositions, interactive games, live music performances, a pickleball tournament, fire truck and heavy equipment displays, a college fair, and family-friendly activities like a basketball free throw contest, Zumba and yoga classes, story hour, a bicycle safety course, and wildlife exhibits. There were free hot dogs, free ice cream and free strawberry shortcake, and a variety of local food trucks. Dozens of local organizations, civic groups, and regional resources set up booths to connect with students and families.
