The Greenfield Triennial Homecoming provided three days of fun and excitement for people of all ages. The event began on Thursday with the annual parade. Friday night saw the ever-popular Miss Greenfield Pageant with Veterans Park packed to see who the new royalty would be. Saturday saw the day starting early with the Tiger Tromp 5K and Kid’s Day with free play for the kiddos and a special Memorial Dedication held at the fire house for Nancy Settles Hillis followed by an open house. On all three days, there were programs held at St. Michael’s Hall.
