                <text>This forty-eight (48) star American flag/bunting hung at the former Town House at 143 Main Street - home to the town offices.  This building closed in 1962 when the town opened the new Town Building at 195 Main Street.  The building was later torn down and the U.S. Post Office was constructed.  This bunting was hung prior to 1959 when Alaska became the 49th state.  It was hung during major holidays and town celebrations such as the Fourth of July.  It was given to Ray Sheridan of the DPW Board by the longtime town nurse, Mary Ward.</text>

On the left is the CITGO Service Station owned by George O'Brien.  The sign "JENNEY" on the station refers to Jenney Manufacturing Company in City Point, South Boston which produced petroleum products. Jenney auto oil and gasoline became a major supplier by the time of 1920 and was a merged into Cities Service about 1965 and the Jenney name was  replaced by CITGO.&#13;
&#13;
NOTE: The original photo had the people badly out of focus, so image enhancement techniques were used to make the faces clearer.  The original image is also available.</text>

&#13;
ASSABET VILLAGE MINUTEMEN TO HOLD 3RD ANNUAL COLONIAL DAY PARADE&#13;
&#13;
The Assabet Village Minutemen of Maynard will host their 3rd Annual Colonial Day Parade on Sunday, June 20th, 1976, at 1:00 p.m. in downtown Maynard. As in the past, it will be an all Colonial event with Militia and Minutemen Companies of the area in the line of march.&#13;
&#13;
This year the Assabet Village Minutemen will dedicate a granite marker to the memory of the original minutemen who traveled the Old Concord Road on April 19th, 1775, to do battle with the British at the Old North Bridge and along the Battle Road. This marker will be placed on the green on the corner of Acton Street and Concord Street, and will be dedicated with a ceremony midway on the parade route, at approximately 1:30 p.m.&#13;
&#13;
In this, the Bicentennial Year, it is most fitting that we, the present generation should recall the events that took place 200 years ago and the effect that they had on the lives of the average citizens of that time. Many from this area left their homes that fateful morning never to return. For others it was years until they saw homes and families again. In the case of these minutemen who passed through what is now Maynard, they were defending their homes, families, and their rights as Englishmen to remain free and not to be oppressed by laws passed by their King and Parliament 3,000 miles across the sea.&#13;
&#13;
It was these same citizen soldiers who ignited the spark from which sprang the flame of revolution that gave birth to the great nation that we live in today.&#13;
It is for us, 20th Century Americans, to remember the legacy of our Colonial ancestors. They gave up everything for us so that we might remain free. Let&#13;
us not forget the debt that we owe them.&#13;
&#13;
By erecting this marker on the green, may it bring to mind the sacrifices of our&#13;
forefathers and strengthen our love and respect for our country.&#13;
&#13;
The Assabet Village Minutemen were re-activated by the Selectmen of Maynard on April 12th, 1971. Although Maynard was not a town until April 19th, 1871, being made up of sections of the Towns of Stow and Sudbury, many of the citizens of the present town went into battle on April 19th, 1775, with the minutemen and militia companies of the parent towns.&#13;
&#13;
This granite marker is not dedicated only to the men from the area of the present&#13;
Town of Maynard, but to all the minutemen and militia who fought for our freedom two centuries ago.&#13;
&#13;
The Assabet Village Minutemen invite you to join with them in this parade and&#13;
dedication ceremony in this event commemorating the Bicentennial of our country.</text>

&#13;
Assabet Village Minutemen to hold Ist Annual Colonial Day in Maynard.&#13;
&#13;
Maynard, Mass.&#13;
June 16th, 1974&#13;
&#13;
The Assabet Village Minutemen of Maynard, Massachusetts, will hold their Ist annual "Colonial Day" in Maynard on Sunday, June 23rd, 1974. This will&#13;
feature a Parade consisting of Minutemen and Militia units starting at 2:00 P.M. followed by a display of Colonial Arts and Crafts at the Maynard Rod &amp; Gun Club, off Waltham Street.&#13;
&#13;
Colonial Units from New Hampshire and Massachusetts will participate in the first event of this kind to be held in Maynard. The parade will form in the&#13;
Digital Equipment Corporation parking lot on Main Street (Route 62) at 1:30&#13;
and step off at 2:00 o'clock. The line of march will be out on to Front Street, right on Sudbury Street, right on to Main Street, down Main Street on to Nason Street, up Nason Street, right on to Summer Street to the reviewing stand at Memorial Park where streamers will be awarded to participating units. After the review and presentation of streamers, the parade will continue down Summer Street, to the intersection with Main Street, turn right on to Main Street and follow Main Street to the Digital parking lot where the parade will terminate.&#13;
&#13;
Following the parade there will be a display of Colonial Arts and Crafts at the&#13;
Maynard Rod &amp; Gun Club sponsored by the Assabet Village Minutemen and presented by the individual Minutemen and Militia Companies in attendance. The public is cordially invited to visit the Arts and Crafts exhibition and view the Colonial items made by these 20th Century craftsmen.&#13;
&#13;
The Company of Assabet Village Minutemen was formed on April 12th, 1971, to recreate the events and perpetuate the memory of the original Minutemen from Maynard.&#13;
&#13;
In 1775 the Town of Maynard did not exist as we know it today. It was then&#13;
just a village on the Assabet River; partly in Stow, and partly in Sudbury, as the Assabet River was the boundary between these two Colonial towns.&#13;
&#13;
When the call came early on that April morning in 1775, the men of the Assabet Village fell in with their respective companies in Stow and Sudbury and prepared to defend their rights as free men against the soldiers of their King, at Concord.&#13;
&#13;
This march to Concord from Maynard is re-created by the Assabet Village Minutemen each Patriot's Day as they follow the route taken two centuries ago by the original Minutemen from this area.&#13;
&#13;
The Assabet Village Minutemen are members of the Council of Minutemen and attend musters, parades, and many other activities sponsored by other companies of the Council throughout Maine and Massachusetts, as well as many other Colonial functions held in New Hampshire, Rhode Island and New York.&#13;
&#13;
As the Bicentennial of the Battles of Lexington and Concord in 1975 and the National Bicentennial in 1976 nears, the activities of Colonial units increase. The Company of Assabet Village Minutemen have accepted many invitations to participate in ceremonies and other functions for the remainder of this year as well as the Bicentennial years and would like to invite all of our fellow countrymen to join with us in celebrating the birth of this great nation we live in and enjoy today.</text>
