Editor: Trout Festival: Hats off to Greg East and his crew of volunteers. You guys did a terrific job. I don't take in much of the Festival anymore but what I've seen and what I've heard you guys deserve a "big" pat on the back. My only complaint and/or suggestion is for next year. Could the Main Street businesses get together, maybe three or four, and donate a bench so us elderly people can sit down. If three or four businesses get together, that could come to quite a few benches. Put your logo or name on the benches and do a little advertising! Especially in the band stand area. The longest I was able to attend Main Street was a half hour. When you sit on the curb, it's hard on the rear end and hard to get up again. I've talked to a lot of elderly people and they agreed they would stay a lot longer if there was some where to sit down. Thank you kindly, and looking forward to some benches next Trout Festival. Sincerely, John K. Phillips9/7/04
