The 16th annual Fair in the Square kicks off at noon today with the Verona High School Vocal Jazz Ensemble singing on the steps of Town Hall. There will be a Santa for photo ops at the Fair in the afternoon, and another one all day at Terry’s. The store is giving a free 5×7 photo of the event or you can bring your own camera. Every child gets a gift and there is a hot cup of coffee on the house for parents.
