One story from around Inwood that's been handed down involves the threshing rings that used to work together to harvest oats each year. While the threshing ring constituted a lot of work, it was also appreciated for the social values of getting together with your neighbors. Here is one of those stories.
Southeast of Inwood, in the early 30's, there was a threshing ring. Families where much larger then and there were younger boys helping. One fella was Sam, and he had two boys, Kenny and Howard. Kenny was in his mid-teens, Howard was about 10 years old, and mischief was their middle name.
