Aside from the new U.S. Post Office and the Methodist Church, there are few bright spots in Skidmore. The Skidmore Food and Drink (new name for the D&G) is now owned by a gal named Pam who serves great coffee! The place is quiet and homey and sports a new woodburning stove to keep the place warm in the winter.
Skidmore’s population is reported to be 342 according to the 2000 Census, reality suggests that it is far closer to 225 to 250. Since the killing in 1981 Skidmore has lost approximately half its residents.
