Living in Dryden

beyondmeasure, Grange recognition, more

Since the Ithaca Journal instituted the Our Towns section, Wednesdays have consistently been a busy day for Dryden news. Today's paper includes:

• a story on beyondmeasure, the Dryden High School a cappella group that recently recorded a CD (and recorded it at Masterview Soundcrafts, along Route 13 in Dryden);
• Cathy Wakeman's Dryden Town Talk, which looks at honors the Dryden Grange gave Marilyn Brooks and Tom Miller last week, as well as a quilt presented by "Mary Ellen Rumsey and Sue Cardwell on behalf of 'folks who want to contribute to the annual Dryden Dairy Days, but who are not part of the Grange or the farming community'";
• and news of absentee ballots for Dryden Central School District elections and Dairy Day organizers seeking volunteers. Elections are May 18, while Dairy Day is June 12.

In county news, legislators have agreed to aim for a 3% tax levy increase, though they haven't agreed where to make the cuts that limited increase will require.
