[PHOTOS] Walk Rye Fest Defies Rain

Rye Historical Society held its Saturday festival despite the torrential rains.

The show must go on. With an event roster that included a John Philip Sousa brass band and live animal petting zoo, there was no way the Rye Historical Society was going to let a few hours of torrential rain ruin the fun at last Saturday's Village Green festival.

The festival celebrated the official opening of the Walk Rye tour which features 22 informational placards at sites around the city for visitors and residents alike to enjoy and learn more about the history of Rye.

Check out these photos from the Rye Historical Society's Facebook page showing the fun had by all.

Let's look at the appropriateness of this post. First, it's clearly an ad because it points to a…Read More specific insurance agent at a specific agency to contact. Second, it attempts to hide being an ad behind what may be useful information (or not). Third, the "person" who posted it doesn't use their real name. Instead, they use a pseudonym Divorce Information NOW. That doesn’t seem terribly reassuring to me. This the third advertising post on the “announcements” space since Rye Patch converted to the new site layout. Seems a bit of a mess to me. But hopefully someone will come along and figure out who the real poster is, their link to the advertised agent and agency, and then delete the post. After all, if it’s an ad, it should be labeled as such and the poster should pay for having it run. If that doesn’t happen, Patch won’t be able to pay its employees to keep real content on the site.
