For those of you fretting the cold weather, here's a look back to the summer of 1987. This is Maple Lake in a very dry condition with the clubhouse located directly in the background. Anyone remember this particular summer? If so, please comment below.

It did not happen this year due to COVID-19, but the annual Clarksburg Christmas parade has been a fixture for decades. This photo is from the very early 1970s and shows the Victory High School band along Main Street. Recognize any of the businesses in the background?
