We would like to take a moment to thank all of you who heltped make the Alesandrini Family Benefit Dinner a success last week. We raised a little over $1300 over the course of the evening between Ticket Sales, Silent Auction Items, and Private Donations. We would also like to thank the local businesses that showed their support by donating either supplies such as plates, and silverware, or items for our silent auction. Without their support our efforts would never have amounted to so much. We are currently awaiting replies from a few of the winners of the silent auction, and once that is taken care of, all of the proceeds will be delivered to the Alesandrini family. Lastly we would like to thank the area Rotary clubs who came out and showed their support. There were a total of 8 Clubs represented (Scotia, Glenville, Twin Bridges, Burnt Hills Ballston Lake, Schenectady East, Rotterdam Sunrise, and of course Niskayuna) at the benefit dinner. Again, Thanks to all of our sponsors: -Price Chopper |
