Part of Williams Street was blocked off.
Crystal Lake only 100 years old?
The band Felix and Fingers was playing for the crowd.
What gives?
Inside the Raue Center Lego Master Builder David Howard was showing how he uses his computer to construct a model of the Raue Center.
In the beginning there were two settlements. (More information here.)
One, grouped around the train station was called Nunda.
About four the chairs for the entertainment were not filled.
The other’s focus was on Crystal Lake, the lake.
Tours of fire trucks were being given at the Crystal Lake Avenue end of Williams. Children got a look inside police cars at the Brink Street end.
There was a merger 100 years ago.
Crystal Lake Mayor Aaron Shepley took the stage to offer thanks to volunteers and staff members who helped with the yearlong celebration.

There were not many empty seats for the entertainment.
They weren’t planned to fit together.
Crystal Lake Council members Kathy Ferguson and Ellen Brady Mueller stood ready to pass out tiny cupcakes.
And the band played on. Felix and Finders performed old favorites.
In any event, yesterday marked the end of a year of activities celebrating the merger.
Cal,
I don’t see any pictures of the “main attraction ” at the Crystal Lake days..
The WALRUS show..
Yep, Nygren and Margie actually showed their faces in public yesterday there.
Oh, thats right, he had to.
He wants people to donate $60 for his sorry fat butt retirement..
No thanks, I am going to give the $60 to the Prim campaign.
Well at least the County won’t have to pay for traffic control at Nygrens retirement event because there won’t be any traffic.
I’m with you ” The facts state on” I’ll give money to support Bill Prim.
I wonder while Nygren is in town if he’ll visit his old pal Harrison.
It looked like the people of Crystal Lake put on a nice event.
Went there with my daughter and had a great time.
