Richfield station to be spruced up for Old Mill Days festival

The Oakesdale city council has agreed to buy materials needed to clean up the old Richfield auto shop for use in food service for Old Mill Days July 20.

Gail Parsons, food volunteer for the event, appeared at the June 17 city council meeting to ask for permission and assistance with materials.

Parsons said he would like to caulk the windows and repaint the walls.

“Very minimal,” he said.

Once the cleaning and painting are complete, he said a refrigerator will be moved in to the empty space inside.

On July 20, food will be served in a tent erected in an area behind the Richfield station.
