Rochester Tractor Pull186 viewsIf you were anywhere near the Rochester Country Fair grounds on Saturday, you heard the familiar sounds of revving tractor engines echoing throughout the town. The country fair committee held a tractor pull/swap fundraiser on April 29. Those who attended got an early taste of the sights, sounds, and smells of the Rochester Country Fair with dirt flying, engines blasting, and diesel smoke billowing up into the air.

Sowing the Seeds of Peace186 viewsA ginkgo biloba sapling from a 250-year-old mother tree that survived the A-bombing of Hiroshima was planted in Rochester last week. The mother tree was 1,500 yards from ground zero and survived the blast.

It was quietly planted behind the playground at the Dexter Lane Ball Field. Photo by Jean Perry
