Events

In the early 1900s, Main Street periodically served as a race track. Horse races were a big event with almost everyone on hand and were often followed by a baseball game. Other activities included a Debating Society where issues of the day such as railroads, Sunday laws, and women's rights were discussed, a Literary Society, Star school sporting events, and a skating rink. An evening outing for a party of young people would often include chartering a trolley excursion to Boise. Star Trading Days were stock sales held every third Saturday of the month.
