met at the Lied Lodge for lunch and then toured the 52-room

Arbor Lodge. Heritage Days were also being celebrated and

activities included: bread making, leather crafting, churning

butter, fabric dyeing and printing, weaving, tin punching and

more. Had a nice visit with a "Mountain Man", who was

certainly dressed for the part. Except for all the rain, a

good time was had by all! Thanks to Lucille Sharpe for

her guidance and the nice family from Arkansas for taking

our group photo.

Condolences to the many family and friends of Gary

Dankleff who passed away October 12th after a battle

with cancer. He spent his early years in Unadilla and kept

those friendships. A jolly guy who always had a great story

to tell, he will be missed by so many.

Retirement of unserviceable flags

and honor the American flag at a disposal ceremony 

conducted by Legion Post #100 on Tuesday evening

Elliot Harden concluded the ceremony by

playing "Taps"

Thank you Boy Scouts and Girl Scouts for

attending and showing your support. And thank you to

the Girl's State, Boy's State, and Junior Law Cadet for

talking about their experience and being an inspiration
