*** REMINDER: only trees and branches can be dumped at the burn pile. Someone left an old computer desk, cement, and other things there over the weekend. If we get inspected by the State and those items are there, they will shut down our burn pile and this great benefit to our residents will be lost. *** Thanks to the Unadilla Fun Run organizers for their generous donation to the Unadilla Community Foundation. *** The park shelter is progressing nicely; with an "outdoor" kitchen, it will be a wonderful addition to our park. *** BIRTHDAYS & ANNIVERSARIES
