Tragic moments in Pottahawk history #2



It was the turn of the century and Pottahawk was beginning to catch on as one swinging place to party. In an effort to make the festival exclusive, little people were bannished from joining the jocularity. It was widely perceived as; being for their own safety in the, sometimes, waist-deep waters of Pottahawk.

The implementation of this prohibition led to a small riot, (no pun intended), in nearby Turkey Point where many a flower bed was crushed, fire hydrants were defaced and one child's wadding pool was deflated. The law was over turned in time for the very next Pottahawk and eight little people disappeared into the murky waters that year.
