Hundreds of Yorktown residents converged on Franklin D. Roosevelt State Park three community building events on Saturday. The Yorktown Chamber of Commerce started the day’s activities with the HealthYorktown 5K run that benefited the Yorktown and Lakeland education foundations. Following the race the Alliance for Safe Kids (ASK) held organized Yorktown Community Day and the seventh annual Taste of Yorktown event.
Thirteen area restaurants participated in the competition, and the public enjoyed fun and games presented by dozens of town charities, businesses and organizations. Taste of Yorktown winners included Nuttin’ To It Catering and Thyme.
The clear and sunny day also included a dunk tank, with special guest Yorktown Supervisor Michael Grace, and a performance by Unfunded Mandate, the band made up of Lakeland Central School District administrators and staff.
