What's New

Santa is coming!

To the Duncan Building

Saturday, December 19

9:30 a.m. - 11:30 a.m.

He has presents for everyone!

Corinne at the Village Office reminds us that Seneca

Sanitation will pick up garbage on Christmas Eve day and

New Year's Eve day, instead of Friday, their usual day.

Tuesday afternoon, the Unadilla Area Fund met at the Duncan

Building. (Read the entire minutes above.) Election of officers

was held, the All Fund Drive was discussed, and the preparations

for Groundhog Day began. (Just a reminder, it's the first Saturday

in February!)

 

Afterwards 40+ residents and neighbors

attended the reception for light refreshments. New members

of the community came and were introduced, as were 

members of the Village Board.

Bob Brandt gave an overview

of what the Fund has accomplished so far and what its

plans are for the future. Secretary Sue Saathoff handed our

information sheets with services available in town and the

Community Center. It was a most enjoyable evening.

Thanks to these additional All Fund Drive contributors:

Jason Schomerus, Lynn & Anita Schomerus, John & Gera

Stilwell, Chris & Jan Moore, Jeff & Penny Rodgers, May Lamb,

Michael & Becky West, and Brian Zahn. You made Santa

smile!

Condolences to the family of Lorraine Franks,

who was laid to rest in the Unadilla Cemetery.

We had well over 3.5 inches of rain as of Monday

morning at the Western Wilhelm Outpost. No griping

now, it could have been all snow!
