The world’s oldest ham turns 116. 116 is the atomic number of livermorium, the number of years that the Hundred Years’ War between France and England actually lasted and the record for number of wins in a single Major League Baseball season achieved by the Chicago Cubs in 1906 and the Seattle Mariners in 2001. More importantly, 116 is a good excuse for cake. Join us in this annual tribute to the birthday boy, and help us launch our annual Pan Ham contest. Also here to help us celebrate will be the Blackwater Regional Library’s Library 2 Go Bookmobile. Visit them outside for some additional hammy activities!
