What do you see in Jordan?

While walking around the village or driving thru
take notice of what is around you.

Are you happy with what you see? Are there weeds growing out of sidewalks?

Do you see things you would like improved?

Are you looking at things that you enjoy? Make you smile?

Have an idea of a project that would improve the Village?

Phase 1

Phase 1 of the Jordan Outdoor Historical Gallery has been placed on the north outside wall of the Bennett Conservatory for the Arts Building located on North Main Street in Jordan.

You can view an on-line slide-show of Friday June 20th in Jordan when the mural framework was constructed and installed then when the mural was mounted from the front page of www.JordanNY.com

Please go visit the mural in person and let us know what you think. Any comments about the mural that are posted on this blog will be shared with the Village Center Committee.

The committee has worked hard on this project and welcomes your comments.....good or bad.

Only one requirement, you must provide your name.
Thanks and we'll see you on the streets of Jordan soon.

Sky over Jordan...


Last evening provided a neat view of unusual cloud patterns over Jordan.

Here is one which makes me think I am looking at the Cascade Mountain Range in Washington State.

Did you hear about the Jordan tortoise on the loose?


This is the greatest story. WSYR Channel 9 did a wonderful job on this. It's happy, funny and true!

This is a must watch video.

Wow!

I never thought so many people took photos. We are getting lots of photos from Memorial Day. We just posted a few more and will probably create another Memorial Day album so we can display all that we have and continue to receive.

We welcome everyone to share. Great job by all.
Check out the updated Jordan Photo Album on Picassa. You'll find a direct link on the right side of this page.

Please notice the new pretty planters set around the village center area. Isn't it amazing what a positive impact something so simple can have?
