minutes to disinfect it.
- No one should consume water or ice that has not been disinfected, or
consume drinks containing water that has not been disinfected.

Attention all dog owners in the Town of Danby
Every dog over the age of four months, owned or harbored

The Town of Danby is now completing a door-to-door dog

If any unlicensed dogs are found, you will be required to
obtain a license for each one and a $5 fee will be added to
the regular licensing fee.
The current dog licensing fees are:

Black Bear sighted in Downtown Danby |
|
News Flash-
Danby, NY. Our correspondent, Bea Hogben, reports from Downtown Danby:
On June 15, after attending an informative training session
describing treatments for allergies, heat exhaustion, and heat
stroke, conducted by Peter Goodman at the Danby Fire Station,
I left the station for home around 8:30pm.
Much to my amazement, I saw a black bear go "lumbering" across
NYS Rt.96B from the Hornbrook Road area, and then across the lawn
of the Danby Fire Station.
Another stunned witness to the incident, standing on all four
spindly legs, was interviewed. "There I was, minding my business
and staying out of traffic on the Fire Station lawn. I looked up,
and couldn't believe my eyes," reported the unnamed, wide-eyed deer.
"I was looking at a bear. A bear!"
I had heard there were bear in the area. Now I believe it.
