The first Saturday after Labor Day is always a busy day in Schenectady! It features several local annual events.
The day began with a visit to the 60th Annual Stockade Outdoor Art Show featuring more than 100 artists from the Northeast. This area was recently affected by flooding from Hurricane Irene, but its residence and this community believe the show must go on and go on it did!
It was then off to stop at St. George’s Greek Festival for a sampling of wonderful food, including a nice piece of baklava. The weather was nice and it was a great way to spend the afternoon.
Finally, in the evening a stop at the 6th Annual Schenectady Little Italy Street Fest. The fest is set up on North Jay Street amid some of Schenectady's most well known Italian bakeries, restaurants, and pastry and spumoni shops. Wow, what a day!
Schenectady is filled with great days like this, another reason to love this area!
