Girl Scouts from multiple troops within the NYPenn Pathways, most from the Tioga Center and Nichols area, along with a Cub Scout from Owego’s Pack 37, participate in a flag raising ceremony at Old Home Day at Kirby Park in Nichols on Sept. 3. (Photo by JoAnn R. Walter)<\/p><\/div>\n

On Monday, Sept. 3, the 107th annual Nichols Old Home Day, sponsored by the Roki Community Club, brought the community together for a parade and activities at Kirby Park in Nichols, N.Y.<\/p>\n

Following the parade, a flag raising ceremony took place at the park. Although evidence of the recent flooding could still be seen in some areas of the park, it was masked by<\/p>\n

bright sunshine and summerlike temperatures.  <\/p>\n

Music, face painting, a bounce house and slide, and games, pony rides, various vendors, concessions and a chicken barbeque highlighted the day.<\/p>\n
