Community Events
Roscoe’s
community spirit is thriving and the town continues to grow more and
more beautiful each year. We are active participants in the Sullivan
Renaissance Program, and are pleased to report that we have received
numerous recognitions for our revitalizations efforts. We have also
been consistently acknowledged for our showing of flowers in the
various gardens and parks that are spread throughout the hamlet. Two
lovely murals have been added to the sides of key buildings,
depicting outdoors scenes from our local watercolor artist, Jack
Yelle. Large wooden carved trout sculptures have been added to two
strategic locations – the town’ s Western gateway and a pocket park
on Stewart Avenue. A new log sided Information Booth holds a place
of honor on Stewart Avenue. And finally, our “Down to the River”
project in 2009 resulted in the creation of Riverside Park, a true
showpiece of nature along the famous Willowemoc Creek.
The Golden Feather awards received in 2008 and 2010 were used
to redesign our sidewalks and streetscape ---- those projects are
nearing completion --- and to build a Veterans Memorial at the
Firehouse. The Main Street Grant provided selected property owners
with funds to improve their buildings. And the survey of Historic
Properties is currently in progress. We continue to move forward on
other opportunities to improve our community every day.

PLACE JUST CONTINUES TO GET BETTER
