A sign at the Williams Aquatic Center declared the sad news that the center is closed for the season. One thing that will remain after the Labor Day weekend is the Kiwanis Route 66 Street Market on the west end of town across from Williams Memorial Park.

The Street Market, which benefits scholarships for kids in Williams, runs generally into early October depending on how much it is used. Over the summer, the number of vendors has grown considerably and it appears to be worth taking a look.
