LYONS – On the morning of January 2, 2000 while the rest of the world was still breathing a collective sigh of relief at the technology bullet which had been dodged as the millennium rolled over, Ted’s Hardware opened its doors with new owners and a new name—Clark’s Hardware. Lonny Clark still remembers selling a lot of candles and survival supplies before Y2K

The December social was sponsored by Oskar Blues and On-Site Computer. Both companies did a fabulous job of showcasing their businesses with videos and PowerPoint presentations. Thanks to these great Lyons companies for their support and knowledge.

Double D Accounting, owned by Diane Johnson, recently moved to 138 East Main St. in Lyons Village Central shopping center.

The Lyons Town Board is still debating the green tag program for use in Lyons’ parks which would allow dogs off leash if they are trained to be under their owner’s voice command.
