Chautauqua Rolls Into Milan’s Town Square June 11-15
By Sherri Roth, Feature Writer
Former President Theodore Roosevelt was once quoted as say- ing, “Chautauqua is the most American thing in America.” It’s easy to understand his thinking, when we consider the impact these live traveling shows had on small town America during the late 19th to early 20th centuries. A blend of musical and theatrical entertain- ment, educational lectures, religious revivals, and political and social discussions, a Chautauqua event drew together isolated rural folks seeking enlightenment and personal enrichment.

Peaches - 2019
Peach Festival Is August 3

By Brad Schwan, Schwan Orchards, Catawba
Scholarship Helps Entrepreneurs
When I was a young man my mother had a friend who had a peach orchard on Catawba Island. She had a standing order for a big bunch of peaches each year which would turn into several of my favorite peach pies. I can vividly remember the annual question “How are the peaches this year?” I found this didn’t mean “How do they taste?” Often the reply was, “No peaches this year”. Subconsciously I came to understand the fragile nature of this endeavor. Perhaps that challenge is what drew me to grow peaches myself.
Until the early 1900’s, Catawba Island was known for its fabulous grape production. By 1915 almost the entire township was a mass of peach orchards. The majority of those survived until the 1950’s when land values provided the aging farmers a nice way to exit the temperamental vocation.
