Avella to host car cruise, history fair
The second annual Avella History Fair and Car Cruise will begin at 9 a.m. Sept. 24 at the Avella Volunteer Fire Department, Route 50.
The A.D. White Research Society sponsors the event, which was presented for many years by local writer and historian Kathryn Slasor. Slasor, who is a charter member of the A.D. White Research Society, will appear at the fair with her new book, “Under the Sugar Tree.” The book will be available for sale.
Slasor moved to Florida several years ago to edit and compile the many stories and articles she has written. “Under the Sugar Tree” is the first book to be published.
Space is still available for interested organizations. There will be displays, food provided by St. Michael’s Catholic Church in Avella and the car cruise, with plaques available to the first 50 registrants.
