The town of Barrington has a Peeper Fest, including the Peeper Fest 5k road race... it's a 30 year tradition of celebrating the peepers! I lived in Barrington for a long time, and the highlight of watching the 5k was seeing the Catholic nuns from the Rochester Orphanage running in full uniform. Some of them had very bad habits...
