The Chickaree is an event the Monticello Community Club started 20 years ago in conjunction with the Lion’s Fisheree.
The Community Club will be grilling 550 chickens again this year. Half chickens will be sold at $7.00 (not a complete dinner…just chicken). The basting recipe remains the same as what is used at Homecoming.

Monticello Citizens Invited to Attend Meeting at School

To the Editor,
The Bar Stool Evening News and the Morning Coffee Klatsch Show are not even as reliable as the mainstream media. What ridiculous gossip mongering and character assassination.
Let me set some things straight: The Monticello Village Board members are not stupid; they do not believe the sky is falling; and the village is nowhere near bankruptcy.
We do, however, believe we are at an important point for making some heavily impacting decisions for the future.
