Leo Club provides flood relief in Schoharie
On Sunday, Sept. 18 Leo Club
members Amanda Gemmiti, Maddy Kenyon, Ciara Fisher, Abby Schaible,
Anna Winters, Lia Schettine, Stephanie Rice, Libby Aliberti, Tara
Nunez, Olivia Ash, Caitlin Gurney, and Sara Chappell volunteered their
time to help with clean-up efforts in Schoharie. The group was
assigned to assist the Schoharie Colonial Heritage Association
cleaning the historic Mill Building. This barn-like structure is over
a hundred years old and was filled with mud as the flood waters
receded.
The Duanesburg Leo Club plans to continue volunteering in Schoharie
every Sunday throughout the fall season. Students who would like to
join the Leo Club and participate in these service projects should
attend the first Leo Club meeting on Wednesday, Sept. 21 at 3
p.m. in Room 116 at the high school.
Additionally, on Friday and Saturday, Sept. 16 and 17 Duanesburg High
School Leo Club members joined forces with the local Lions Club for
White Cane Day at NBT Bank in Duanesburg, which is an annual
collection for Lions Club community projects. It was decided that all
donations collected this year will be used to support flood relief in
Schoharie County.
