Waddington Homecoming

Waddington Homecoming 2010

Fireworks, Camera, Action!  Waddington Homecoming 2010 is going to be explosive. It is scheduled for Friday, Saturday, and Sunday, August 6th, 7th, and 8th. 

The ever-popular Lip Sync Contest will be held Friday evening and bands will entertain the crowd Saturday night before the spectacular fireworks display on the river.   

Please plan to attend the annual Craft Fair, Antique & Flea Market Show which will be on Saturday from 10:00 a.m. to 4:00 p.m. To exhibit items at the fair, entry forms may be obtained from Nancy Putney at 388-5576 before June 30th.

Also on Saturday is the Bed Race, which has proven to be one of the most entertaining and well-attended events. Call Mack’s at 388-5862 to register your five-person team. Beds are provided.

Quilts will be displayed at St. Paul’s Episcopal Church on Saturday, but quilts won’t be the only items on display. Anyone who does needlework is welcome to showcase their home-made creations. Some examples might be tatting, embroidery, cross stitch and rug hooking. Please call Linda Jones for details at 388-5661 or Marcia Tiernan at 388-7880.

The theme of the 2010 Homecoming is “A Salute to Railroads” and there will be several model trains set up for viewing at this year’s Homecoming celebration. A Community Picnic and more entertainment are on the agenda for Sunday.

In keeping with the theme “Salute to Railroads,” the 35th Annual Waddington Homecoming announces another addition to the list of exciting activities you can experience August 6, 7, and 8th.  A working model railroad with landscapes and train cars will be on display at St. Mary’s Parish Hall, corner of Lincoln and Oak in Waddington.  This operational display can be enjoyed Saturday, August 7th from 10:00am to 5:00pm, and Sunday, August 8th from noon to 4:00pm, and is made possible by the Norwood Model Railroad Club.

Volunteers are needed in all areas and more bands are needed as well.  Contact Chairperson Karen Thew at 388-4118, or email her at kthew@twcny.rr.com if interested.
