Programs available for the small business owner include general business ENFIELD TOWN COURT Although this column is about the Town Court, after nearly four years as Town Justice, I am struck by how unified, yet how diverse Enfield is and the wonderful community, in- stitutions, and resources that we are blessed to have in this town of under 3,500 people, The Town Court, of course, is a local institution that is here to administer justice and to serve the town. Likewise, we have vibrant local community resources and programs. Youth ser- vices are close to my heart that lessen the ultimate need for our town court. The Enfield Community Council have been serving youth here in Enfield for almost two decades, and just seems to grow stronger every year while it accommodates current youth and family needs in the community. Currently, the flagship programs are the full 6 week summer camp that is affordable There is no charge for ad- mission and all are welcome.

Treman State Park, finally and accessible to all open after a long and hard residents, and the fine teen program. Likewise, as a community, we are fortunate to have access to the fine youth recrea- tional programming at the Ithaca Youth Bureau through the efforts of the Intermunicipal Recreatioi Partnership. Similarly, the Grange, Fire Company, the Churches, and various other formal and informal groups have provided and continue to provide quiet, winter ana the necessary cleanup, and I hear, Con- necticut Hill, and the various Enfield Finger Lakes Land Trust Properties, although Rusty, my erstwhile Labra- dor/Chesapeake Bay Re- triever canine companion and I have not yet got to go exploring there, are tremen- dous natural resources located right here in our community.
