Maynard's Great Columbus Day Patriotic Observance
Maynard held its greatest patriotic celebration on Columbus Day with a civic parade by G A R veterans, military units, schoolchildren and citizens, a barbecue for about 600, and a field day at John A Crowe park. The program featured a large flag display, a 1000 pound roasted steer, speeches by officials, a cane presentation, athletic events, and a dance ending the day, with community organizations contributing to the event.
