The Unadilla Sundowners, an FCE Club, met on Tuesday, February 15th, at the Duncan Building. The group stuffed over 30 bears and bunnies. The project started by Sharon Demaree & Peggy Leefers distributes the handmade stuffed animals to anyone who needs a day brightener. Many have went to CASA, who gives them to kids in need. The community commends your generosity.
