Prestigious and Coveted Cup

The Shandaken Day Cup is the most coveted award of Shandaken Day. Though hardly anybody outside of the Big Indian fire department cared, still it is considered prestigious by those who state it with loud conviction over and over. The Cup, not a traditional prize, is won through various bogus games of skill, hence the extreme lack of participation. Last year, Big Indian FD won, not surprisingly as they were the only department to show. The Cup boasts a two sided graphic with the hosting hamlet's logo on the outside and the eagle logo on the inside. Those who have wore the cup serendipitously, reported that the thrill of having an eagle near the proximity was unparalleled. Supervisor Stanley urged everyone to participate in the games and promised to place the award on the winner in a special ceremony. Photo: Big Indian Shandaken Day Cup
